It's free from the parking lot but if you want a ride back you have to dine at the restaurant or buy tickets. Which are inexpensive and then you get unlimited train rides all day. The conductor is sweet as can be. \nThe petting zoo is nice. The animals are friendly and I didn't see them bite any tiny fingers that were trying to feed them. \nThe melodramas are super cheesy but fun for the kids and all the employees are very friendly. \nThe only downfall is the restaurant. Bad service and very poorly prepared frozen food. I've tried it three times just in case and every time was terrible. That's why the 4 star rating not 5. \nThe weather is typically cooler than Las Vegas cause it's at the base of picturesque Red Rock Canyon. Absolutely gorgeous photo opportunities.\nThe owners should start an annual pass program for locals."^^ . . .
