Los Angeles Live Steamers Railroad Museum

Just past Travel Town, you’ll find the entrance to this one-day-a-week attraction along Zoo Drive. Lovers of things that go choo-choo should head here on Sundays, when the folks at the Los Angeles Live Steamers Museum drive a handful of model trains around the grounds ($4 suggested donation). Unlike the full-sized, shaded seats at Travel Town, you’ll straddle the miniature trains here (and need to be able to do so for up to 20 minutes). There’s an old Western town theme to part of the route—which is covered in Halloween decor during the seasonal Ghost Train. LALS also sits next to Walt’s Barn, the late Disney founder’s model train workshop that’s open every third Sunday.

LALS train rides are from 11am to 3pm every Sunday, except for the Sunday before Memorial Day and the first Sunday in October. There’s a $4 suggested donation for train rides.
