The Adelaide Miniature Steam Railway Club is located at Railway Park in Prospect. Take the family down to view and ride their range of super cool miniature trains! As one of numerous miniature railway parks in Adelaide we think this is another great spot to take kids aged 2-12 or train enthusiasts of any age!

This volunteer run club opens it gates to the public every 4th Sunday of the month except December from 1-4pm. Adults and children alike can climb aboard the miniature trains and unlimited rides are included in the modest entry fee.

Entry to the Park costs $10 per adult and $6 per child (kids under 3 years are free), and all train rides are included in this price. Please note that they only accept CASH and remember that ALL persons wanting to ride the trains must wear FULLY enclosed shoes.

  • Gorgeous leafy playground located in Prospect suitable for all ages. This playground has a lovely vibe about it with some great play equipment in a “magical” garden theme. This playground allows the children to play on the equipment, explore the garden and nature areas, build sandcastles in the sandpit, splash in the small water play area, kick a ball on the lawn or just relax on a blanket. The playground is fully fenced but also offers lots of shady grassed areas outside the fence that can be utilised for picnics /parties. The play equipment has 2 separate areas to cater for different ages. The Toddler area has a slippery dip on the hill surrounded by grass, a swing set including baby swing, some climbing equipment and a few small fun bouncing pieces. The bigger kid’s area is based around a constructed tree house feel which offers harder/higher ropes and a higher slippery dip area however this area is not under shade. Both areas have bark chips underneath for a softer landing. This playground has tables located around the fenced in area however the toilets, BBQs and drinking fountain and more bench tables are located outside the playground fence. A great…

The objectives of the Society is to create and maintain interest in model making of all types. So there's small machine tools, tool making and experimental engineering connected to models. This is very much a kids haven! Adults and children can experience the amazing model trains up close and personal, and the main highlight of SASMEE is being able to ride on a range of model steam and diesel trains! There are two stations (one near the middle and one right down the back) and a variety of trains run continuous loops stopping at the stations to take on/let off passengers. Trains can take between 3 and 20 passengers so families can sit together or take turns with the kids while others take photos! There is also a small lake (fenced) that you'll sometimes see people driving their remote control boats on in the nicer weather, and nearby are the tiny (toy sized) model trains that the kids will also enjoy watching when they aren't too busy riding all the bigger trains!
