O atrakciji

Brze činjenice: Zvižduci pare i dečiji smeh se mešaju dok minijaturni vozovi i punokrvna uskotračna lokomotiva prolaze skoro 1,5 milje šina, vodeći porodice pored bašta, igrališta i muzejskih izložbi. Unutra, prostrana maketa železnice i kolekcija od više od 30 istorijskih vagona omogućavaju posetiocima da izbliza ispitaju ručno izrađene prizore i originalne mesingane armature.

Istaknuto: Trepereći venci od 1.200 svetlećih lampica i miris toplog kokica začinjavaju večernje vožnje, dok parna lokomotiva od 15 inča po imenu Emma prolazi pored obnovljenih vagona i obližnjeg ribnjaka. Neobična tradicija nalaže da volonteri mašinovođe zvone mesinganim zvonom tačno 12 puta pre polaska, ritual koji godinama vodi dugogodišnja volonterka Maria Lopez, a koji odjekuje krošnjama drveća.

Insajderski saveti

Wear closed-toe shoes for playgrounds and when boarding trains.
Arrive at opening on weekends to beat ride lines and get the best seats on the miniature railroad.
Photographers should shoot the full-size locomotive display near the museum at golden hour for dramatic light.
Avoid midday visits in summer, plan early morning or late afternoon rides when temperatures are cooler and staff run more frequent trains.
