A fully scaled handmade model of the old West Cork Railway Line with working trains, the adorable village will soon be home to spirits, skeletons, mummies, and skulls, with tickets starting at €5.50 per child under 16 and €9.50 for adults.
Children aged under three go free.
While capacity is still restricted due to Covid-19 guidelines, the Road Train, which makes its way along Clonakilty’s narrow streets and lanes, is still running at the weekends.
