What we loved:
Nice, family orientated, low key!

What we didn't love:
Tickets for Thomas & Friends must be booked through and outside co.

This happens to be our 4 year olds favorite place. He is a train nut! It is a family friendly atmosphere! We have taken the ride on all of the different cars. The Presidential car is a very nice ride, especially if you can get the seat at the very rear of the car. On the way back you are right behind the engine. They have let my little guy stand in the doorway with his father right behind him and "help" to couple the train. He has also held the flags for our journey back. br/br/There are a lot of other local attrations near as well, the Train Museum, The Little Caboose Motel, etc. Dutch Wonderland, Christmas Land, and the Amish Farm are all within 15-20 minutes. br/br/Great for a weekend getaway for adults as well.
