Fun time for the family at a reasonable price. The mini train sets are amazing.the Halloween experience was great for the entire family. Scary enough for little ones and children alike. Saw so many great costumes and had an enjoyable time on the train ride. Spooky train ride I should say. Even during regular business hours the place has a great park for kids to run around and tire themselves out at.of you haven't been check them out you will have a blast!
We are staying in Mesa AZ and went to the park with our friend Leslie and her two niece's. The park is very nice with train exhibits as well as train rides and a carousel. The park is free as are the exhibits but you do have to pay for the rides. That have 2 train rides with one being much smaller. The train is a small steam powered unit and rides around the park. It is a lot of fun for both big and little kids. The train exhibits are also nice as you get to walk through restored rail cars . They also have a nice gift shop and snack shop that sells ice cream and a few other treats. Worth a visit especially if you have kids
This is an amazing place! I especially appreciate the models room! You can still see people at work building stuff! Very interactive and fun to explore. You can easily spend a few hours there and have not seen it all. "It's never too late to have a happy childhood!" I feel like a giant peering through the town of awesome-ville and her people. Visit the Park early in the morning to avoid the heat. The holidays light is awesome, too! The train ride is cool! The playground is awesome! Don't forget to visit the store for some delicious ice cream. People working there are nice, professional, and friendly! Thank you so much for this awesome place!
Great place for kids and families to unwind and have fun. Keep in mind that weekend afternoons will be crowded. The park usually has many events and they are advertised on banners in advance around the park. If you enjoy museums or historic looking buildings you'll enjoy this place as well. They have a snack shop, ice cream and gift shop. If you want a bigger or more filling bite to eat there is a path under the road that goes to the plaza across the street which has restaurants. The train ride is fun to bring your kids on. The kids get really involved in waving to everyone and listening to the train whistle. It's also very reasonably priced at the moment $3.00 a ticket for an about 10 min ride. You definetely need to go there once to at least see what it has to offer.
Best train park ever!! One of the best we’ve ever been to. This place has it all! A carousel, the train to ride, an ice cream parlor, a fantastic playground with lots of shade, and a super fun kid size Old Western town! There is also the Pullman presidential car for the grown ups, really cool experience! They have a model train display that is next level, just awesome. My boys (5&7) and I stayed for an entire day and they went non stop. So much fun. Highly recommend! Scottsdale sets the bar high with this amazing city park.
