      We went on one of the Murder Mystery Halloween rides this year. We have done Murder Mystery things in the past but this was our first time riding on the train. Staff was excellent. Was $55 which included everything except alcohol & pop, which were available to purchase for extra in the main car. 3 course meal included was very good - vegetarian option was delicious, I was told the meat option was as well. Dinner lasted one hour in the dining car. The train ride itself was 2 hours. It was dark at the time of the ride so viewing scenery wasn't an option but it was still very nice. Only thing that was disappointing was the Halloween aspect. We were expecting more of a theme to it since it was only done for 2 days, but it was just very few people in costume with a dinner and murder mystery. Was still a fun night. Would definitely go again on a regular night. Maybe go with a larger group for Halloween so more people are in costume.

      Great staff and a fun trip with souvenirs to buy as well. $15 per adult a reasonable price for a fun time on the train.

      Summer is when you have tourists... you were closed the whole time we visited Port Stanley in August. Seems things close down and slow down in late August... you want people to visit, then be available.

      A nice open air train ride with commentary from the conductor. There is a stop where you can get out and stretch your legs and take pictures.

      An enjoyable ride in an older train set, slow enough to give you time to enjoy the scenic view and appreciate the work involved in the construction of the railroad track. Courteous and knowlegeable staff (volunteers). Old railroad cars were interesting.

      We took our grandchildren down to Port Stanley this morning to ride the Port Stanley Terminal Railway 11:00 AM excursion. The railway operates through the summer on Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday at 11:00 AM, 1:00 PM and 2:30 PM. The Saturday trips are longer than the rides the other three days. They go all the way to St. Thomas in front of Parkside Collegiate and back to the terminal by the King George VI lift bridge in Port Stanley. Our grandchildren had never before seen a lift bridge so it was actually a "throw in" bonus for them. At about the half way mark, the train stopped at the former Whytes Station and we got off to explore some "rolling stock" including a front mount snow plow and a wooden red caboose.The engineer was dressed in traditional classic striped cotton train engineer's coveralls. The conductor, also dressed in period garb, kept a running commentary of the history of the line and its ties to the former London and Port Stanley Railway line. Sometime in the mid 1950's,I recall riding on this line with my grandparents for a day at the Port Stanley beach. At this time, the engine was powered by electricity. This trip brought back some sweet memories.The cost was a little pricey ($15.00 for adults and $9:00 for children three and over). Younger children were free. Pricey? Yes! But their smiles and squeals of delight made it more than worthwhile. A gift shop was well stocked with toys, books and other things suitable for kids.We wound up our day with photos of the kids standing beside our engine named "Gordon".A great day we will remember when the winds and snows of February come calling to South Western Ontario.

      The train was prompt in leaving. Being fascinated with all things mechanical, my husband was intrigues with the gigantic snow plow train car which open to explore.

      Whether you are fans of old railways or not, this is a delightful way to spend a few hours especially with children. Follow the Kettle Creek Valley through residential backyards, over bridges, past Union Station and enjoy the air, the views and the running commentary which, invariably, is always laced with railroad humour. The train ride should be a highlight for any visitor or regional resident in, or to, SW Ontario.

      We are a couple in their 60's who wanted a weekend country getaway from Toronto and Port Stanley fit the bill. It's a small, friendly fishing town in Ontario on the north shore of Lake Erie. It has several good restaurants serving freshly caught perch and pickerel, a few very elegant women's clothing stores and some good jazz at a local pub. One really pleasant low-key experience was the local train that takes you on a one hour round trip to a park north of the town. It's a vestige of the era when there was a major train line from Port Stanley to London, Ontario. Now electrified, it feels like you're going back in time when there were steam trains. On a bright, sunny day, the surrounding creeks, bridges you pass over and woodlands are charming. Sometimes you see a deer (we didn't). There is a genial elderly captain who keeps up a dialogue about the old days and even gets in some gibes about the metric system and children who no longer walk enough (to school). We enjoyed it thoroughly! I think it would be amazing for those with young children.
