"Absolutely disgusting yesterday watched the driver of the train get off and rudley abused a driver that accidentally did not see the train coming like I have seen many times before but seriously the driver was a disgrace thinking he was top dog of the train line perhaps like he rudely pointed out to the car driver what is it going to take before something is done maybe puts some flashing lights on when the train is coming but what I witnessed was disgracefully in front of people and kids think before you open your mouth"
"Great views"
"OOpsy put the review for this on the kiosk - will fix- What could be more fun than a jolting ride along the foreshore accompanied by 8 lil monsters goaded on by Dad and Uncle, shouting hello and waving to all the walkers( who good naturedly responded in kind)- unless you have a bad back, then take a thick cushion"
"What a delight it is to remember going on this little train when I was only a few years old to now be able to take our young son along to enjoy the joy of being on a train with a beautiful view"
"A nice idea and good for kids, just don’t expect the train to leave on schedule"

Great views. Would of given this a 5 star but staff member Kym is a rude piece of work, not only to my family but everybody else wanting to get on the train. It's like we where an inconvenience to his day. Lose the grumpy workers and this could be a great ride. All other staff where great.

What a delight it is to remember going on this little train when I was only a few years old to now be able to take our young son along to enjoy the joy of being on a train with a beautiful view. It can be quite hot inside though when sitting and waiting but once moving again it’s quite lovely. We will come again soon. Thanks.
A nice idea and good for kids, just don’t expect the train to leave on schedule. My goodness we were suppose to leave at 12:05 and at 12:30 still sitting here. The payment process is very long and really no reason someone can’t take payment before the train arrives instead of making people sit with kids for so long.
Great way to kill half a day with the kids, a few rides on the "carnival" rides, trip up and back on the steam train and finish off with some lunch from a random cafe on the main road.

Great little steam train ride for all the kids, big or small! The ride goes for about half an hour and you can just jump on board with payments taken via Eftpos - Adults $10, Kids $5 & under 3's are FREE!
A lovely experience, definitely recommend for anyone heading down to semaphore beach for the day. Don’t miss it!

Small miniature train that runs from semaphore to fort glanville. Walking trail runs alongside so you can catch the train there and walk back. Nice sheltered carriages, kids love it.
The train is a bit old, however it's a nice adventure. An exciting experience for a family and kids on a holiday or a weekend. I recommend it. Kids will like it :)
It's was really enjoyable and a lovely trip.
