Cabin John Train Station

Tourist attraction Historical landmark

👍 I really wanted to give this a five star rating, but I think four is plenty accurate; it’s really more of a 4.375 stars, especially due to the price. It’s pretty awesome that one of our local parks can offer a train like this for only $2.50 per rider . At a duration of about 12 minutes, it’s worth... People often mention train, ride, park, nice, kids,

    I really wanted to give this a five star rating, but I think four is plenty accurate; it’s really more of a 4.375 stars, especially due to the price. It’s pretty awesome that one of our local parks can offer a train like this for only $2.50 per rider . At a duration of about 12 minutes, it’s worth it. My favorite part is rolling by the main playground area (twice) and being the main attraction for all the kids not riding. The missing star is due to the lack of attention payed to the visuals on the trip. There is a section that goes behind the park office, and it’s as if the people in this area aren’t aware there is a train full of park patrons every 30 minutes chugging by. It looks like the backyard of a house rented by 10 college sophomore guys, messy, bikes, junk, maybe a 40oz but definitely a tall-boy. Easy fix. There is also this one random giraffe-head statue, which gives promise that there was some other features designed into this journey, but, nope. It’s just the one; maybe someone dumped it there? I’m probably being super petty. Go. It’s a great park, and this is an added bonus.

    That was a fun outing for the kids. We had to wait half an hour for our train ride time but I think we got lucky buying tickets in the first place as there was also a birthday party going on and many people from that also on the train. It's maybe a 10 minute ride through the woods and my littles had fun!

    Very nice short scenic walking trails. Great for exercising your dog (s). A number of socially picnic shelters, some with barbecue pits. A play area for the young kids. Soda/water machine empty at the time visted.

    It was a nice little ride. Only advice I would give you, if you have an infant, ride on the back. The engine noise is very loud upfront, but the whistle is scary for a little one. Other than that, you can see deer and it's a nice ride for the kids

    Great area but train doesn't run when tracks are wet. Go when it's bone dry

    This is a very nice mini train. It is strong enough to pull a lot of minicars with both toddlers and adults. Your kids will love this place. The park is also close by and so kids can run and play. Unfortunately, the train is not in season during winter.
