This train is in Allaire State Park. Note that since it is a state park, they charge an entrance fee in the summer. If you plan on going for the day it is a very nice place to bring a young family. the kids love the train. They have one of only a few surviving cabooses of s type.
A short train ride that runs every half hour, just twice around the track. Open-air and enclosed rail cars.
We were just out hitting all the sights we never did as kids or with our kids. We grew up many miles from here and thought we would have some fun.We really enjoyed the structures on the line. Some had old n guage mini-train layouts. Very nice. We enjoyed it and can't wait to bring grandkids here
Great and reasonibility priced way to spent a December evening. Our boys, 2 & 5, were so excited about the train ride! The ride was about 20 minutes which was perfect for their attention span. Santa was also very nice with the boys and they got a key chain gift. We got a lot of good pictures! This was a fun activity with our family and friends.
Little kids and big kids can have a nice outing at a reasonable price. There's lots more to do at Allaire State Park too.
This was a nice little offshoot from Allaire State Park. It wasn't very big, but it was clean, friendly, and well-maintained. There were a lot of people there to take a train ride around the park (about a 5 minute round trip) and the ride looked safe and fun for kids. FYI - There are stairs involved if you want to ride the train - but not to enter the park itself.
Great place to take family young and old for a fun little train ride all done up for christmas. Also it was a unique village train musseum. Not badly priced for the ride.
The train ride is short and goes around twice. The conductor was informative. He said that in the 2nd week of September, they open up the train yard to the public, so there's more to see. There's no real museum for this, as the real name suggests.
This would mostly be of interest to a railroad buff and fun for children. It operates on a limited schedule with a few special events scheduled.
This is run and maintained by volunteers not over paid parks department people. Because its a lot of work. So if the place is a little less than your shiny wishes, volunteer and make as perfect as you want it to be. Other wise appreciate it dor what it is a piece of history brought to you by amazing people who could be spending their time elsewhere.Yes this is worded strong as my usual rant but I don't want to hear how someone was disappointed and did nothing to make it happen. its a lot xloser and cheaper than Strasburg railroad and the peolle here are much nicer. Much! So thank you to the men and women who eek out time in their busy lives to be here.
