Arizona is home to some beautiful places and even our city parks are quite lovely. If you’re looking for a park that stands out from the rest, then you’ll want to check out this one located in Scottsdale.
McCormick-Stillman Railroad Park is located at the southeast corner of Scottsdale and Indian Bend Roads in Scottsdale.
As the park's name hints, the element that makes this park so unique are the trains. Home to historic locomotives, the Scottsdale Railroad Museum, model trains, and small versions to ride around the park.
So, if you have some spare time and want to enjoy the beauty of a truly unique place, be sure to check out this park! Let’s take a look around.
Let’s start with the trains! These are two of the historic steam engines you can find in the park but you’ll also get to find an old Pullman car and historic boxcar.
Meanwhile, you’ll also get a chance to ride around the park on smaller versions of the originals but able to fit your average adult.
And, if you’re up for more rides, you’ll love the carousel. It’s an antique with 30 horses, 2 chariots, and an abundance of fun.
There's also a covered playground for the kids to enjoy!
One of the newest attractions here is the model railroad building. Here, you will find several model railroads and trains that are fascinating to watch!
Also located on site are places to get snacks, ice cream, and other treats.
The hours and events change seasonally. For example, during the Christmas season you'll get to enjoy riding through light displays in the chilly air.
