“still closed 7/12”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 July 2012

We've been on 6 scenic RR trips and this was the most forgettable. In a word, it doesn't go anywhere and it doesn't do anything.

3 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 February 2010

The train is not operating at this time and there is no information when it may start up again. The last time we were there the cars and locomotive were on display, though.

“Great Experience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 February 2004

Had a really fun time. Very educational. The gentleman doing the narration was very knowledgable about the history of the Yuma area. Would say it is well worth doing.
