Beautiful views and a friendly staff make for a fun experience. Went during the Easter Express and there were a lot of crying babies. But, they did a wonderful job preparing the egg hunt. Though the cupcake was very dry, the drinks were good. Overall a great experience:)

It’s an exciting adventure for the whole family. For just a moment, go back in time to a place where life was much simpler & public transportation was a steam powered locomotive. The sights, sounds & smells will transport you back to that time. I highly recommend riding on The Skunk Train.
