Rated 5 out of 5 Totally a wonderful & educational experience with a great family emphasis. Great venue when weather is wet & cold too. Great "hands on" activites for old & young. A great family day. Only an hour drive from the Gold Coast along the Logan Motorway - seem like no time at all we got home. School holidays there are wonderful activities for the kids. Food at the Train Restaurant was great - we are vegetarians & they provide a most filling & delicious vegetarian burger with the best hot chips. 12 June 2012
