This park is a wonderful place for children to play and adults to relax. Fully fenced for safety. Great play equipment for older and younger children. Lots of space for running around.

My kids love the Train Park.Usually we struggle to keep an eye on the kids because theyre always running in different directions but here, there are quite a few benches to sit at and watch the kids play. Love that its always clean. And toilets too!

Loved this park. Its really neat and feels secure the entire park is fenced all around. There are places to eat right across the road and also bp garage for snacks and drinks which makes it super convenient for me. My kid had such a blast playing around and running after birds while we chilled under the trees. Choo Choo Park has a small train, swings, slides, jungle gym, see saw etc and a big open space for them to run around and some sport the ablution facilities were neat and tidy as well. It was a good day all round

The park is great, but there are still people who let their dogs off leashes in the park with kids around.

A nice park, good for picnics whilst kids can play on the park equipment or ball games as there is ample grassy area.One of the few parks with a choo choo that kids absolutely love. Very close to convenience stores like woolworths, etc for snacks or other.

Choo-choo park was alive with young kids with their parents or carers today! This is a safe space and the playground equipment is quite well maintained.And of course there is that lovely old steam engine standing in pride of place!!

Clean, spacious, quiet. A good place to relax, to organize ones thoughts, to bring the kids. It saw it been maintained/painted less than 6 months ago.

It was a pleasant experience to be back there after many years. Many years ago we took our children to play there and now we took our granddaughter and she really enjoyed it. There is enough space to put in smaller swings though for the little ones.

My twin granddaughters had a great time at the Choo Choo park as always. One of the swings was broken and is a potential hazzard as sharp metal was protruding from the rubber tyre seat. Hope it gets sorted out before we go back again 🙏

This park is not bad. The grass was a bit long though. Also, I wouldnt advise you to go alone because their are weirdos constantly walking in and through the park

I revisited this park after after being out of the neighborhood for some time. It was nice to see the park well maintained. The paved path is a nice addition. The various swings, slides, merry go round, are all nicely paved underneath. Take a picnic blanket or sit at the bench sets. There is a fair amount of parking available.

Review №41

Lovely park...just the big slide does not make one feel safe for a 3 year old. So the babies obviously runs there to want to climb...and that is tiring....but the train is the best!

The park is so wide. Kids can play in the field without any problem. There are double monkey bars, slides and others considering the ages of the kid. Kids love the red choo choo train in the middle of the park. Two ducks are available in the park. There are two gates. The park is closed at 6pm. Colcaccio 🍕 is right across the street. I recommend this park. But the grass needs to be be maintained continously.

This park is an Excellent park due to the iconic train parked in the middle of the park this made my childhood. It has a fence around its perimeter so no people sleep there at night. The park is also well maintained and has no rubbish lying. It also attracts a large amount of pokemon go activity due to its two Pokemon gyms one of them being an ex raid eligible gym. There is a large patch of lawn to play games and many park like playing equipment for people of a young age

Review №55

The park is in a good location and was not busy or crowded when I was there. The design is good. It however ends there because the functionality is not as good. The place has toilets but they are locked, probably for security reasons, with no one on sight with the keys when one wants to use them.There is lawn but it is so badly kept that theres patches of soils all over the place. Maybe they are trying to save water, but why not remove then and substitute with something that will not need water?The Choo Choo train is still in good condition and painted.

Such a brilliant little park! It is well maintained and fenced off from the busy street. Great location, right across the road from Belvedere Square shopping centre where you can park and grab a coffee at Vida before heading through to the park or a bite to eat after at one of the child friendly restaurants.

Review №61

This is a nice park to take kids to play; usually not too crowded, with occasional birthday parties for kids. Some of the recreational equipment needs some maintenance though(swings broken and some of the tyres on the jungle gym are loose), and occasionally there are some homeless people.

A good place to take the kids to play on a sunny day. The only down side to the park is the fact that after a bit of rain, the ground tends to get quite saturated and stays that way for some time. There are swings, a see-saw, a merry-go-round and an old train that has been converted and made safe for kids to play on.

Park is slightly being neglected it could do with some love. I dont think its that difficult to give the park that gets used by majority in the neighborhood and outsiders a bit of love.
