Confirmed from Railroad Park's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
Tranquil neighborhood park with BBQ grills, picnic pavilions, playgrounds, restrooms & paved trails.

We enjoyed our Easter here at this park.. it's my first time coming there. I've driven by plenty of times.my daughter worked near by for a year. I was thinking I'd bring my grandchildren here and finally my granddaughters got to come here and enjoy the place!
This is a beautiful Park with the convenience of the trail passing through it so there is always traffic and you never feel alone. Space for your kids, animals, and shade for whatever reason there are a limited amount of benches and tables.
This park is so nice for the entire family. It’s a clean and safe park to go to. You can either enjoy your walk through there,kids playing in the play area, barbecue and eat at tables or just simply enjoy the day there! I really appreciate that they have this park for the neighborhood to come enjoy with their families!
Very nice park thought maybe it’d be too tiny when I looked it up but it’s a good enough plot of land there’s alottt of trees so was good for shade there is also a walking trail that runs right alongside it. We all had a nice time our dog loved it, there are two poop bag dispensers we spotted at the park
