Description

This pretty, leisurely five-mile journey takes passengers from Forest Park through the woods, over trestles and under bridges, on to the duck pond at Trinity Park and back. In Trinity Park, the train stops at a refreshment depot for soft drinks and popcorn ($1 each), the only remaining attraction left from the old Forest Park Rides built in 1958. Two trains run simultaneously on the busiest days. Children find it the ride to be a great adventure, while parents will enjoy the leisurely pace as much as they do the shine in their children's excited eyes.
