Fun Is Just Round The Corner - Go Grab It
Freestone Railroad Park located in Gilbert, Arizona encompasses more than 65 acres. The AZ amusement park is ideal for kids and is home to softball fields, basketball courts, sand volleyball courts, batting cages, soccer fields, a skateboard park, and walking trails around 2 lakes that house several well fed waterfoul. The best part of a trip to Freestone Park has always been the miniature train. Over the years there have been three different operations in place.
The original miniature train concession was installed in 1992. It consisted of a 15" Crown steam locomotive that pulled one open coach and two Sandley coaches. The half mile of track circled the north lake and had a 75 foot trestle that crossed the water on the return to the depot. The 1/2 mile ride lasted nearly 5 minutes and cost riders $1.00.
