Halloween trains are an excursion the whole family can agree on: While teens and tweens might love the terror of Halloween haunted hayrides and mazes, and younger kids need something a little kinder and gentler, a Halloween train is something that kids of all ages can hop aboard and enjoy. From the El Dorado Train to Orange County's Irvine Park Railroad, there are plenty of opportunities to ride the rails in spooky fashion this Halloween season. Read on for our scoop on the best Halloween trains in Los Angeles.
