    This is a good place to bring your family or to just go by yourself. There's lots to see and learn for an all day experience. Fun for all ages. Clean and friendly environment. Culp's restaurant on sight is open to the public for a nice bite to eat. They have a variety of good selection of foods to choose from and even a good selection of kids meals that is actually pretty decent. Lots of parking available for everyone including wheelchair parking. $12 for adults to visit 3 and under are free.

    Enjoyed the holiday lights at Carillon. Park. Nicely lit up, buildings to go inside to get warm. The working letterpress was interesting as well as the bus barn. Good history moments.

    Don't miss place... it's beautiful park with the train collection, a small chestnut& ginger bread house... and many spot collect many interested stuff will give you many experience. You can go up to the top of the big clock and take a look for beautiful view of the Christmas light on night time and apart of downtown far away. Try the feeling under the Christmas tower light...

    My lord. Has to be the best collection of trains, stage coaches and busses in America. You owe it to yourself to see this. Bring the family or come alone. You won't be disappointed.

    This was a great experience. I initially balked at the price. The highlight of 'my' visit was the Wright Brothers building. Our guide, Bruce, shared so much in-depth knowledge that it alone was worth the ticket price. The grounds are impeccable and we enjoyed every building. The men in the print shop were especially kind and explained in as much detail as we desired. I recommend visiting the outside buildings in a clockwise direction. Heads-up: some of the items for sale are cash only; most are not. I had not visited in decades and came away really impressed. 👍🏿

    My wife and I, along with two of our nieces and father in law had a great time here. We are members of Carillon Park but even if we weren't, the 12.00 price is a steal. The museum is fantastic! Tons of stuff to look at and learn. The Christmas light display is great. The staff are always super friendly. I just cant say enough great things about this place. And I need to stress that the price is beyond amazing.

    Love this place with grandsons. Very disappointed to get there and find top 3 reasons we went were all closed. We enjoyed the day and we'll go back but disappointing.

    Went along for my daughter's field trip . There was an over crowd for schools all booked at the same day/ time. But very nice way to learn about Dayton's rich history!

    Great society of people loving and showing off their hobby. Great for all ages, but kids into trains probably will enjoy the train rides great. So happy to have this group around.

    Not one but two trains at this park. And electric locomotive and a tiny tot train. Both have an excellent layout and are well worth the wait.
