  • 2009: Best Kid's Party Place

Essential Information

2201 Newport Gap Pike
Wilmington, DE

What kid could resist chugging along in an antique red caboose on the Wilmington & Western Railroad? Private parties can rent the 90-minute Mount Cuba Express for just $200. Best of all, the caboose is available for use during the off-season, while the rest of the railroad is closed. Just provide the kids and the cake. “My son’s most memorable birthday was when he was 4, and we went to Wilmington & Western Railroad,” guest critic Karibjanian says. “The kids loved riding the train, and they had cake and punch in the caboose. Party over.”
