The Avodnale Express is a miniature railway located at the Avondale Railway Museum in Avondale, Newfoundland. The express consists of a speeder locomotive, two open-air passenger cars and an orange miniature caboose.

The train runs along the trackage beside the museum, which was originally a station on the Newfoundland Railway, which became defunct in 1988. It is believed that this could be the last remaining rails of Newfoundland Railway.


The Avondale Express runs throughout the summer and can be booked with groups of 10 during some of the off-season.
