Excellent low cost afternoon family outing. Be sure to check out the Static train walk thru displays. 1 passenger car has a huge Running O Guage Model Train Exhibit (free). Train Ride is about an hour round trip. Adults are $10 each, kids 3 and under free, Over 3 to 12 $5. There is a small store there too with Souvenir items. Aloha.

It was pretty cool but small. I didn t get to ride the train which may have made it better. I would recommend stopping by if you are in the area but probably wouldn t drive very far out of my way to see it.
