"Fun for Young and Train Enthusiasts"

This location has a very nice railroad museum where you can look at old railroad cars and historical pieces from the railroad.  The narrow gauge railroad track was essentially a small circle and there was nothing interesting to look at while riding.  But young kids that love Thomas the Tank Engine, or adults who are railroad enthusiasts will probably like it but the rest of us found it dull.  Be forewarned that there are lots of Thomas trains in the museum store so be prepared to buy something.
