Wheaton Miniature Train

The Wheaton Miniature Train is a third-scale replica of the 1863 C.P. Huntington engine, with passenger cars. The train takes riders on a two-mile trek through Wheaton Regional Park, with the highlights being a miniature trestle bridge, plenty of wildlife (turtles are known to make multiple appearances in season), and of course the tunnel!

In total, the Miniature Train can hold up to 75 people! So climb aboard, get comfortable, and let us roll you through the Park!

Ovid Hazen Wells Carousel

With 33 jumping horses, three zebras and two chariots, this Carousel is one of a kind. Having served as the Smithsonian Carousel on the National Mall from 1967 until 1981, this beautiful work of art has seen some amazing American history take place.
