All aboard!
McKinney's historic square and small town character are a natural match for a vintage looking train. We run church festivals, downtown adjacent events and a lot of large family birthdays out here.
Most of what we do in McKinney is church festivals and birthday parties. Wherever the party is — a driveway, a church lot, a school drive loop or a park pavilion — we haul the locomotive and five cars in, run rides for your window, and pack out. You supply the crowd; we supply the bell, the horn and the line of grinning kids.
