Reviews
This is such a great place for kids and kids in heart to visit!nnThe small train ride is well worth the wait and the admission ticket. There’s also other toy train on display and you can control them with the remote control.nnWe spent about 2 hours there and the kids loved every second of it!
Once a place where one worried it might quietly vanish for lack of funds, Burnaby Central Railway now feels thoroughly revived.nnMiniature freight trains dashed about with all the earnestness of a Victorian timetable, and to the great delight of small humans and their taller, equally enchanted counterparts, there were little engines available for children to operate. Yes, truly, pint-sized engineers commandeering locomotives, puffing through the sun-dappled grounds like Lords of the Line.nnIf you’d once feared its days were numbered, fret no more. The railway is thriving. Bring a child. Or borrow one. Or simply surrender your adult dignity and queue up yourself. No judgment here.nnSplendid outing. Long live tiny trains.
Beautiful park with a long train ride through the woods. Real steam locomotives pulling a dozen or more people. Very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable volunteers. A delightful experience!
