One ride worth mentioning that is a favourite among children and adults is the Centreville Miniature Train Ride. This 10-minute non-stop ride tours the Centreville Amusement Park. The train goes through and around the park, passing beside and over water, and going through a long dark round tunnel (about 30 seconds). Since the engine is powered by a combustion engine, you may want to sit farther back to avoid engine fumes. The engine pulls five passenger cars, each capable of holding 14 people (7 rows of 2 people each) for a total capacity of 70 people. Along the route are Railroad Crossing signs that sound and light as the train passes. See these videos:
