My daughter couldn't stop smiling, and seeing her so happy made the trip even more special. The tickets are very reasonably priced, which is a bonus. If your child enjoys trains, this place is definitely a must to visit. It won't disappoint! I do wish it was open during the week as well, but it's definitely worth the trip!

Poway Midland Railroad is located in the heart of Old Poway Park. A quaint section of Poway that…read moreincludes restaurants, shops and of course the community park itself. Train rides are available on weekends and if you work up an appetite, be sure to visit the Hamburger Factory for breakfast, lunch or dinner. It's located adjacent to the Railroad station just a few steps away. You can also pack a picnic and bring it to Old Poway Park. It's a perfect place to relax and watch the train make its way around the park. The Poway Midland Railroad is owned by the city and is well maintained by the Poway Midland Railroad volunteers. If you come to visit, be sure to check the latest schedule for current dates and time of operation. These folks love to share their knowledge of old antique railroad equipment and who wouldn't love a ride on an antique locomotive.

For the past 2 months I had to take the coaster beginning at Oceanside to the Santa Fe Depot. And…read moreI have no complaints at all in regard to the coaster and the staff onboard. The coasters are always clean. There's never been a foul odor. Even the people traveling on it are polite. The staff onboard the coasters are always courteous and answer and all questions I might have. I've always been greeted with a smile and a hello. You can purchase a pass at the transit center OR download the Pronto app and purchase them that way. The train is equipped with an upper and lower deck. Some seating have a table so you can do work or eat on. Do they run on time? Not 100% of the time. But a lot of that has to do with the fact that sometimes they need to wait for another train to pass by, weather conditions and some other factors that are out of their control. But you get to where you need to and safely. I highly recommend the coaster. Especially if you hate the 5 traffic! *Oceanside Transit Center: The public bathroom is atrocious!!!*

This was truly one of the best holiday experiences I can ever remember. From the moment you step on…read morethe train, it feels like you're inside the real Polar Express. The decorations (outside and inside), the lights, the sounds, everything is done so well that you're instantly transported into the story. The performers were incredible. Real singers, real actors, fully committed to every moment. They kept the energy high and the kids (and adults!) completely captivated. Santa was absolutely amazing, warm, magical, and exactly who you want Santa to be. Parking was easy, the staff was organized and friendly, and everything flowed so smoothly. There wasn't a single stressful moment the entire time. If you're looking for something that genuinely captures the holiday spirit, this is it. A 10/10 experience that left us smiling the entire night. I would 100% go again.

We left feeling happier than we jumped on. It truly was worth every penny we all agreed. The actors, singing and dancing were amazing.

I'd ridden Angel's Flight Railway many years ago, so it was really special getting to experience it again and make new memories. Such a fun and unique experience! Even though the ride is short, it's packed with history and offers amazing views. The railway is charming, well maintained, and makes for a great photo opportunity. The staff were friendly, the tickets were inexpensive at $1.50 each way, and it's the perfect little stop while exploring DTLA. Definitely worth checking out at least once--especially if you appreciate historic landmarks and classic LA attractions.
