Just perfect! Deserves more than 5 stars.
Lots of thoughtful things for family. The parc has so many details and is very well made. They have a train schedule with live tracking (better than German train) and even announcements (see video). So many different trains and train rides to take. Lots of free picnic areas for family, they even have microwaves free to use. The snack restaurant offers simple foods but at a very good quality. The chicken nuggets are made with good quality chicken, large pieces and you can tell homemade.
They have real working steam locomotives ( not just fake steam/sound) and many famous trains from switzerland. Even a cogwheel train!
The park has many scaled down paths and attractions. It's all half-sized or "children" scaled. They really modeled it after the real thing. If it weren't for the size it looks like the real thing.
You can spend easily the whole day there.
You can buy tickets in advance for better prices. I was one a schools day and it was well visited, most trains pretty full, so buy ahead.
The care and detail that goes into the place is so amazing. You will have a great...

Read moreThis is a very nice family-oriented amusement park. Definitely recommend the place and also recommend to go early. There is a bit for everyone and there is no problem to spend the entire day there. You can buy food at several places or enjoy one of the picnic areas. Of course the main attraction are the train models, especially the ones with authentic steam engines. But there are also many other models of houses, castles and water mills. There are several tunnels on the train tracks, the longest one being 57 meters. The staff is friendly and some of the trains were running long after the official closing time. There are also very nice walking routes around the entire park. It is visible that there is ongoing construction, so the park will surely continue to be an interesting place...
