I kind of consider this one of those hidden jems. This is really a wonderful place, if you like history there is plenty of items, and there is enough entertainment bits even for the kids, especially if they are running the mini trains you can take a ride on. We've been visiting here with kids since they were under 5, and now they are in their early teens and they still enjoy things in the park. The other great item is they keep updating items, they really are making it better each time we visit. There is also a really cool historical food/beer/brew on site. There's a carousel too, it is indoors so even on the worse of Dayton weather days can ride. In some ways I hate to talk the place up too much as I don't want it to become too crowded. HA!
