One More Stop on the Train
"Whewwwwo...whewwwo...
One more stop on the train.
One more stop on the train.
One more stop on the train.
And we'll be there again."
- Laurie Berkner
Another annual event this time of year for us...The Trains at North Park is the most elaborate toy train exhibit in Texas, with vintage locomotives whizzing by on a journey across America. More than 40 Lionel-type O-Gauge and larger G-Gauge locomotives chug on 2,500 feet of winding track past miniature national landmarks including San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge, Mount Rushmore, the Southwest's Painted Desert, Dallas' Reunion Tower, the Statue of Liberty and New York City's Times Square.
North Park Mall offers other great holiday treats...the Scrooge Puppet Show (hourly on the 1/2 hour), Santa's Toy Shop Puppet Show (every hour on the top of the hour), a candy Santa led by pecan reindeer, a SPCA adoption center with cats and dogs (the boys' favorite), and not to mention Santa himself (don't bother unless you are there at 0900 when they begin passing out numbers!)
