The Mott Lake Flyer is a miniature railroad train in the streamline deco style. It was manufactured by the Miniature Train Company shortly before World War II and hidden away to prevent it from being part of the scrap-drive.
Now it takes tots around an oval track at Crossroads Village - Huckleberry Railroad in Flint, MI. You'll find it near the Venetian Swings, Pony Carts, Charles W. Parker Carousel, and the Charles W. Parker Superior Wheel Ferris Wheel.
The Huckleberry Railroad, incidently is a narrow gauge Railway that goes through the park. So, if your'e small enough you can ride two trains in one park. Whoo Whoooo!
