Zilker Eagle Miniature Train

Miniature train. New pricing under 23 months is free. 23 months and over are 6$ About a 15 minute plenty of shade ride. Parking close by. More parking just a short walk away.

Came down for the weekend with my two young children for Thanksgiving to visit my my parents. We stopped by to let the kiddos play at the Zilker Park playground and we HAD to ride the train since my 4 year old boy is obsessed. Needless to say it was a great experience with the updated and refreshed tracks, locomotive, and passenger cars! I was born and raised in Austin so I got to ride the older version growing up.

Super cute little train ride through a part of the park. Conductor was engaging and fun!

Great experience on the train today! Ticket sales were easy, they sell drinks and snacks and have plenty of shaded tables to relax at. The train in brand new with plenty of seating. I loved that the Conductor is dressed up. The ride was long enough and in the shade most of the way. Actually went twice today it was so much fun!

Lovely train ride with such a scenic view. Holds a good capacity - 60? Since it’s new, I’m sure they’re working out the kinks but some signage would be helpful. There were two lines, no one was sure which line was for what. One for tickets, the other for train rides, a little confusing but asking around helped. We got there as soon as it opened, long but quick line. Once we got off , the lines had went down quickly so we bought tickets & re-rode. Many people were getting tickets in the parking lot, I guess they didn’t see the pay to park signs. Overall lovely experience. Next time we will plan to do a train ride then Barton springs pool after.

Great experience for children BUT, very short duration w/ little exciting views as it follows along the springs pool which- there are the trees on one side and the parking lot on the other of the train’s car. SO all in all, a nice one time experience as a tourist or a resident.

I came here for my first time. Customer service is horrible they are not welcoming I had to ask a guy on the side where to get tickets because people in the booth just starred and didn’t say anything while I stood at the window. He told me there’s a lady on the window I told him the window was closed and the lady was just standing behind next to another guy. When I went to look again then she was there not pleasing at all either. I didn’t get her name all I know is she had some gages in her ears. She could be more friendly for sure after all it is a kid family environment. The tickets were $6, kids 2 and under ride free. It’s a cute little ride considering it’s for kids and not adults. My son enjoyed the ride. There was no wait at all so that was a good thing. Parking is horrible around there so I would suggest getting there early if possible

We had so much fun on the train - wonderful experience would recommend
