We had a wonderful morning on the steam engine with our 3.5 year old and 15 month old. Our 15 month old little girl enjoyed the train ride a lot more than I expected. The ride itself is not too long, very pleasant. Despite the heat would put the kids in closed toe shoes next time we visit - can’t wait to visit again.
Very lovely set up with lights, craft stalls, yummy snacks/ coffee stalls and of course, the lovely train ride! Missed out on the big guy Santa as it was raining hard the day we visited but overall, everyone had a good time. A place to take whole family.Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYes
A lovely place for family. Some events suitable for kids will be held here. You can try 1900’s old train here. Booking is recommend. Come earlier for car parkVisited onWeekdayWait time10–30 minReservation recommendedYes
Such a fun day out, took my kids and we had a blast. Train stops in the station for a while at the start while they clean and setup inside the train so you can take lots of photos etc. We rode in the open top carriage for the first half of the journey which we loved. You are able to walk between the carriages while the train is moving. The train ride itself lasts about an hour with a little stop to fill up water tank. Everyone with closed toe shoes can get off the train and look at the other steam train they have in a shed. Was a super fun experience and I would definitely recommend.
Honestly didn’t expect this to be much, just thought it’ll be a train ride and that’s it. But I was pleasantly surprised, and it is best to go with kids as they are the ones who really take away the most. The whole operation is run by volunteers which is so cool.. and they’re doing a fab job! Visit the website to keep a track on what they have on currently as they do light and sound shows too.
Absolutely wonderful experience! 2 10/10.The staff on board were so friendly and kind. Loved the entire journey and our trip to the workshop aswell. Kids and adults both will love this journey!Visited onWeekendWait timeUp to 10 minReservation recommendedYes
We had a steam train return journey booked for us 4 adults and the 2 minis and it was a glimpse of how things were done in years gone by. All the people that work there and look after the constant influx of visitors are volunteers and are so lovely. Their outfits really make you feel like you've stepped back in time, and we really enjoyed our trip chug-chugging over lush farmland with the whistle blowing and hissing as we went. We were in the last outside carriage so despite being enveloped in black coal steam.. ..it was nice to feel the wind rush by on this swelteringly hot day.
The Glenbrook Vintage Railway first class experience is a must try. High tea on board a steam train that runs along Glenbrook to Waiuku and back. The whole trip takes about 65 mins and takes you across a countryside. There are limited seats for the First Class Experience so check out their website to book a time. However if you do miss out on the High Tea experience you can still ride the locomotive through the Steam Train Experience.
When we went there on weekend it was such a lovely sunny day. We could actually enjoy the breeze of the wind while we are in the train. Its nice to experience the steam ride train if its your first time. Its a good experience for the family and kids and explore on the side of Waiuku and then be back on the designated time when the train will be back on the station.
Great place for an authentic steam train experience. Dedicated staff who faithfully restore and run a steam train service more reliably than Auckland Transport manages with 100 years newer technology.
