Our trains hold about 25 kids at once. But don’t let them have all the fun – adults can hop on too. When kids and adults are both riding, the train can fit 18 or so people. View all of our FAQs here.
We recommend that anyone under the age of 3 have an adult riding with them. To ensure everyone’s safety, we strongly encourage kids to stay seated and inside the train cars while the train is in motion.
