Our main news this summer is that we have finally activated one of our history pages (http://www.fpmt.us/min1.htm), and it now contains a short account of our origin and early days. Hopefully, this will be of interest to everyone.

Our Summer Schedule will begin on 7 March 2008. Our Summer Schedule remains:

Tuesday through Friday
11:00am to 4:30-5:00pm

Saturdays and Sundays
11:00am to 5:00-6:00pm

is our official schedule, our closing time may change somewhat depending on the time of sunset, weather conditions (especially the temperature and wind conditions), and the number of passengers. The best way to check this is to call our voice mail at the Trinity Park Depot (817-336-3328). This number will always have the most recent information about the Forest Park Miniature Railroad. You can, of course, continue to call me at 817-834-2119.

Also, keep in mind that, whatever schedule we fellow, our timetable on any day we are open can be on the hour, every forty-five minutes, or every twenty minutes (when two trains are running) depending on the weather conditions and the number of passengers.

High summer temperatures can also affect our hours of operation, especially closing times; we may close at any time between 2:00 pm and 5:00 pm on days when the afternoon temperature and heat index soar to 100° or more. Again, the best way to check if we are open or closed is to call 817-336-3328. We generally change to our closed message ten to fifteen minutes before our last train leaves the Forest Park Depot.

We will be open the following holidays this summer season, and closed the following Tuesday, due to the holidays which fall on these Mondays, weather permitting:

Memorial Day
26 May 2008

Labor Day
1 September 2008

Columbus Day
13 October 2008

Weather permitting is still defined as 55° or above, no appreciable wind, no appreciable precipitation.

Our prices remain:

Adults (13 years and above) - $3.00
Seniors (65 and up) - $2.50
Children (1 year to 12 years) - $2.50
Groups (25 passengers or more) - $2.00
Under one rides on their parent's ticket.

We will continue to run trains for large groups (fifty or more passengers) before and during our regular hours if booked at least forty-eight hours in advance. We will also run such groups on days when we are normally closed (seventy-five or more passengers) with permission of our train master, Mike Miller 817-336-3328 or fpmt@fpmt.us.

We continue to update our mailing list. If there are any changes to your mailing address, please call the Trinity Park Depot at 817-336-3328 and leave any changes on our voice mail. Also, if you wish to receive an electronic version of our notification letter, please contact us by email at fpmt@ledel.us.

If you have any questions or comments, please call me at 817-336-3328 or 817-834-2119. You may also email me at ledel@sbcglobal.net.
