The L. Ruth Express is train ride and is a good family ride that gives a nice view of the park. It is average speed, fun, rerideable, it has a large capcity, and a long duration.

Some of the other reviews puzzled me. What were they comparing this trian to when they gave it low ratings? This is one of the top amusement park trains I have ever been on. It is long; it goes under TWO roller coasters; it has tunnels. What more can you ask for in a train?

Nice little train ride. Good for the small children. Nice train for a nice little park.

A pretty long train ride that gives some decent scenary. Like most things in this park it is pretty good. I was disapointed that it spent more time in the picnic grove than in the park.

Times ridden: 2 ~ Ride experience: 6 ~ Layout: 5 ~ Fun factor: medium/low ~ Landscaping: 7 ~ Evaluation: L. Ruth Express is Waldameers miniature train ride that travels the border of the park and water park. It provides some nice views of the wet and dry attractions, and it goes through a tunnel towards the end. Like all other train rides, its relaxing and gives its passengers time to catch their breath from all of the other attractions in the park.
