Tri-Rail, South Florida’s premier commuter rail system, will host its first “Official Tri-Rail Day” on Saturday, November 18, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., at the Museum of Discovery and Science. Tri-Rail riders with a valid train ticket will receive a $2 discount on museum admission for a fun-filled day. This includes access to the featured exhibit, Thomas & FriendsTM: Explore the Rails!, presented locally by Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital, Florida Prepaid College Savings Plans and Tri-Rail. Additionally, attendees will have the chance to witness auditions for Tri-Rail’s “South Florida’s Kids Got Talent” singing competition.

Families and children will have the opportunity to explore the museum’s wide array of exhibits and are encouraged to visit “Thomas & FriendsTM: Explore the Rails!” Featuring the favorite engines and destinations from Thomas & Friends™, the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) – focused exhibit seeks to engage children, ages 2 through 7, and families in foundational skills that foster STEM literacy through playful learning experiences. The exhibit incorporates STEM practices that encourage thinking mathematically, making comparisons, experimenting to solve problems using a variety of methods and tools, thinking creatively and reflecting on actions and results.

The day will also feature auditions for Tri-Rail’s singing competition “South Florida’s Kids Got Talent.” The auditions are open to solo or group singers, ages five to 17, who are South Florida residents. Each act will have a four-minute opportunity to perform at the auditions. A panel of judges will select the acts that will compete in the final competition, which is scheduled for Saturday, February 24, 2024, during Tri-Rail’s 15th annual “Rail Fun Day.”

Tri-Rail mascot Conductor George Green will make a special appearance. Representatives for Tri-Rail will be on-site to share train information.
