===RollerCoaster Tycoon===
The Miniature Railroad is typically the only transportation option available at the start of a scenario. Attaining a speed of 9 mph on flat track, it beats the [[Chairlift]] (due to the increased speed on downward slopes) but loses to the [[Monorail]]. Thus, the Monorail is usually a better option.The Miniature Railroad is also the only transport ride requiring a full circuit; the Monorail can use the "Shuttle mode" operating option, and this is the only option for the Chairlift. The speed of the trains on upwards hills is 2 mph, so try to keep the track design as level as possible.
 
====Scenarios====
*Indiana Railroad ([[Diamond Heights]])
*Miniature Railroad 1 ([[Katie's World]])
*Mine Tour Train ([[Millennium Mines]])
*Miniature Railroad 1 ([[Fort Anachronism]])
*Miniature Railroad 2 ([[Fort Anachronism]])
*Coal Train ([[Canary Mines]])
*Miniature Railroad 1 ([[Sprightly Park]])
*Miniature Railroad 1 ([[Magic Quarters]])
*Miniature Railroad 1 ([[Fruit Farm]])
*Miniature Railroad 1 ([[Woodworm Park]])
*Heide-Park Express ([[Heide-Park]])
*Pleasure Beach Express ([[Blackpool Pleasure Beach]])
 
===RollerCoaster Tycoon 2===
 
====Scenarios====
*Six Flags Express ([[Six Flags Belgium]])
*Six Flags Express ([[Six Flags Holland]])
*Railroad ([[Six Flags Over Texas]])
 
===RollerCoaster Tycoon 3===
 
====Scenarios====
*Train Line ([[Gunslinger]])
===Other Information===
 
*The miniature railway is actually a faster mode of transport as opposed to a chairlift, but it is still slower than the monorail.
 
*The American Style Steam Trains support less cars than the Steam Trains or Steam Trains with Covered Cars.
 
==Trivia==
*In Roller Coaster Tycoon 1 & 2, the Miniature Railroad could only operate in a circuit, but in OpenRCT2 and Roller Coaster Tycoon 3, it could operate in shuttle mode.
*The standard trains in Roller Coaster Tycoon 1 & 2 are based off those of the Ravenglass & Eskdale Railway, a miniature railway in Britain and the "American" styled ones in all games are based off old American steam locomotives that operated in the 1800's.
