The Mini Express specializes in trackless train rentals in the Los Angeles county area. All of our units are 100% electrical uniquely handcrafted and are second to none in detail and craftsmanship. Many of our trains have operated in major shopping malls across California and Arizona. If you want entertainment for a birthday party, festival, private event or work gathering, our trackless train rentals are perfect for all crowds.
We’ve been in business for over 10 years. Our first business started as a general party rental company, catering to the Los Angeles metropolitan areas. After designing and building our first mini electric train, we started renting it to private parties, corporate events, church events, and city parades.
While working at a private event in Los Angeles, we were approached by a high executive of a national mall company. They mentioned to us the possibility of opening one of our units in one of their shopping malls. And then, the rest was history! During the next several years, our presence in major shopping mall chains in the United States increased steadily. We’ve operated in the Los Angeles, San Francisco, and the Phoenix metropolitan areas with tremendous success.
We know that we’re not your only option when it comes to trackless train rentals. With The Mini Express, our experience and knowledge will provide the perfect entertainment for your next party or event. Let us show you why you should choose us for your next trackless train rental!
