Ooh, spook trains, definitely!
Going to look for "spook trains" in Five Go Off to Camp
or
Searching for a Great Auk with Jack Trent (and Kiki)?

Spook Trains, definitely, as I doubt we would see a Great Auk, and I'm not up to clambering over rocky cliff faces.
Looking for 'Spook Trains' in FGO to Camp or exploring the tunnels under 'Sugglers Top' ?

Re: Which do you prefer?
Just to get the thread going again, I'll set a new one based on Moonraker's original answer - the next question should have been 'Tunnels under Smugglers Top or ... ?' rather than two completely new things.
Exploring the tunnels under Smugglers Top or Living in the lighthouse on Demons Rocks?

The dungeons on Kirrin Island. We might find some gold ingots!!
Exploring the dungeons on Kirrin Island or taking a flight in the Wishing-Chair?

Re: Which do you prefer?
I've never really read many of the younger age / fantasy books, including the Wishing Chair. So it'll definitely be a trip in Noddy's car.
A trip in Noddy's car or Tobogganing in the snow (Rat-a-Tat House / Five Get Into A Fix)?

Re: Which do you prefer?
I'll still take Noddy's car, thanks.
A trip in Noddy's car or a row in George Kirrin's boat?
(NB. That's "row" to rhyme with "go", not "row" to rhyme with "cow"... )

George's boat. Not to catch any poor fish, I'd let them carry on living in the water. But I'd love to be rowed over to Kirrin Island by George, with Timmy sat nearby.
A row* in George Kirrin's boat or a cycle around Peterswood with the Find-Outers?
*(As Courtenay said, that's "row" to rhyme with "go", not "row" to rhyme with "cow")

Re: Which do you prefer?
Both are very tempting but I'll opt for a trip with George in her boat.
A row (as in trip) in George's boat OR a ride on one of the horses/ponies at Mistletoe Farm?

Re: Which do you prefer?
I'll stick with George's boat as I haven't read the Mistletoe Farm books. Though I love all animals so I'm sure a ride on one of the horses/ponies would be very enjoyable.

Re: Which do you prefer?
While it's been a while I'll answer my own question and set a new one. I'll go for a night in the Castle of Adventure just to mix things up.
A night in the Castle of Adventure or a night on Mystery Moor?

Re: Which do you prefer?
I've not entered this before, but, think I've got the hang of it ( should have - I've been following this thread for quite a while).
Difficult choice - nothing might happen on Mystery Moor, while staying in the Castle of Adventure is itself an adventure ! I reckon Castle of Adventure.
Now Castle of Adventure or Smugglers Top. I know what I'd choose...
