Runing Season
(posted 21/06/2026)
DSMEE's summer running season has begun. We will be offering free miniature train rides to children every Saturday from 14:00 to 16:30, weather permitting. Rides will not operate during the Marlay Park concert season.

Rules of the Rides
(valid for 2025)
- Please note that for Health and Safety reasons, there is a strict height requirement of one metre (~three feet). Children should also be three years of age or older. Personnel on duty at the station will check to see whether or not your child is tall enough to ride.
- Only children who can board trains unaided will be allowed ride.
- The wearing of cycling helmets or roller-skates on the trains is not permitted.
- Taking personal items like food, teddies or toys is also not allowed due to the risk of children dropping them while the train is moving.
- Parents or guardians of children with special needs should talk to the DSMEE members on duty at the station before their children travel on the trains.
- When the train is moving, riders must keep their feet on the carriage running boards. They must not lean out or try to reach for objects along the line.
- All trains carry a guard to supervise children and to ensure they are behaving safely. The guard can and will stop the train if children are not behaving safely. DSMEE reserves the right to refuse to carry children who cannot ride in a safe manner.
- We do not carry babies-in-arms under any circumstances.
