I enjoyed how immersive it was. The presence of the actors added time pressure and put you right at the center of the experience. Having this take place on 1885 Street was the perfect setting as well!
The family and myself had a blast.
The biggest surprise was that the trolley and steam train rides were free and unlimited with your paid admission. The volunteers were really good at acting their parts and even tried to sell us snake oil. You can easily spend a whole day there visiting the fort, enjoying the mini fair or learning some Indigenous history and the new building.
