The Christmas Train was started in 2009 when the Loflin Family had an idea to share the true meaning of Christmas with the community and have a place loved ones can come out and create memories with their family.
When you arrive to the Denton FarmPark for the Country Christmas Train you get to walk down the lighted candy cane path to the train station where we have a live Santa for families to take pictures. You can then get on the Handy Dandy RailRoad and take a ride around our mile in a half track and see some Christmas lights and see a short movie about the True meaning of Christmas. Along the ride you will also see a live nativity scene, Dedication to the military, and even Elves for the children. When you finish the train ride stop by the Gingerbread house to see Laramie’s Cakery for fresh baked goods and gingerbread cookies being made in front of you. Continue down the lighted pathway to see the Grist Mill, a petting zoo, Horse drawn carriage rides, General store, Radio Museum, Church, Shoe shop, Gas station, Myres car shop, Doll Museum, and Coke Museum. We will Have Rides for the kids to enjoy like a Farris Wheel, Swinging tubs, and more. After you see the tiny Christmas village with all the lights, Vendors, and interesting Historical artifacts you can get a tram ride down to the plantation. At the Plantation you will see what life was like a Long time ago. See the Black Smith working in his shop, the plantation house and how people lived and cooked, in the sleeping quarters see how to make how to make candles. When your done, ride the tram back to modern times and follow the path to the Craft barn and finish your night out with some good food and many crafts inside before you head back home!
