What a great time for the little ones in your family! Located just inside Windsor’s business park, Trecothic Creek is an oasis for railway enthusiasts of all sizes. The big ones, volunteers, are running the miniature trains, and the small ones, delighted, riding them.(Grown ups are welcome to hop on, too.) Best yet, the place is completely free! But due to the volunteer nature, open just a handful of days each year, so be sure to do your research before heading out. Two notes: the washrooms are a LONG walk from the train area, so best to plan pit stops for your way in and out; and, they provide great infrastructure for birthday parties, including picnic tables and barbecues(this latter for a fee) Well worth a visit.

Well I’m a little nervous to be the first to review such a great provincial treasure. Surely I just missed the ‘real’ link to this working model train(s) station?! But just in case I know that this place deserves some hype! A true word of mouth gem, open a mere 11 days in 2012(I have the business card in front of me) we truly lucked out hitting it open on the way to Noggins Farm this Thanksgiving weekend. Directions and contact information read like the old times, turning by old homesteads instead of a concrete, GPS friendly address, but the website draws you a map. Once you arrive with the crowd of other people in the know you enter by donation(seriously). Nestled(truly no other word for this step back in time place) on private property is a full working train station, in miniature, complete with a station and engineers that you can ride! Sound cheesy? It is. But something in the air here encourages everyone to just embrace their inner child and enjoy themselves. Perhaps it’s the fact that the trains and stations are actually impressive feats of engineering. Or it could be the beautiful surroundings and quaint station. But my monies on the actual engineers. All of them were smiling, knowledgeable and great fun. My hats off to all of them but in particular Brady Rhodenizer who took the time to not only chat with us but to gift us with some of his amazing homemade pear jelly!
