About Handy Dandy Railroad
The Handy Dandy Railroad at Denton FarmPark offers train rides aboard vintage locomotives that began operations in 1982. Visitors board either a 1948 70 Ton Diesel General Electric Locomotive, known as 202, or a 1942 50 Ton Class BSI H.K. Porter Steam Locomotive, designated number 9. The railroad operates during scheduled park events, so prospective riders should check the event calendar or follow the railroad's Facebook page for current dates. The attraction suits families and railroad enthusiasts interested in experiencing working locomotives and vintage railway equipment. A visit involves riding the train cars along prepared tracks while learning about the locomotives' history and specifications. The railroad charges admission for train rides, with different prices for adults and children under twelve, while preschool-age visitors ride free. The Handy Dandy Railroad is located in Denton, North Carolina, as part of the broader Denton FarmPark facility.
