We had such a brilliant time riding on the miniature steam and diesel trains! 🚂 The whole experience was absolutely charming — a perfect blend of fun and nostalgia. The ride lasted about 6 minutes, and my son was completely over the moon. There’s something truly magical about hearing the puff of the steam engine and feeling the gentle rhythm of the train as it winds through the track. It might be miniature in size, but the excitement was huge! The attention to detail was fantastic, and it was so lovely to see both children and adults enjoying the ride with big smiles. Highly recommend for a wholesome family outing — simple, joyful fun that leaves you with warm memories. We’ll definitely be back!

Been going to this park for decades firstly as a kid and now with my grand kids. Unfortunately the railway wasn't open on the Saturday but I still have numerous fond memories of the model trains. We will undoubtedly return.
