At the Paradise and Pacific railroad, passengers can board an old-fashioned locomotive and travel in a one-mile loop around the park. After the train ride, kids can visit the huge model railroad building to see tiny buildings and trains, climb and slide on one of the two playgrounds, or take a ride on the carousel. Fun (and uber-affordable) stop for younger families.
