The museam is very nice, full of interesting things. Both ships and trains...

The working train set is a nice touch,

My two year old loved being at the museam, he loved playing with the toy set.

If you bring your child to the museam be ready to be here a long time. A long long time.

On the plus side they have a off button for the train set. You will know what I am talking about after you are here for a few minutes.

Once your child is playing with the toys and no longer watching the trains go round and round... have them turn it...

My son is obsessed with trains. He loved this museum. We got there just in time to watch the model trains run. There was so much information on history even a movie was playing that you could go in and watch. I only wish that the train car's and engine outside had been finished and opened for him to go into. That would have made this day a 10 star experience. They even had the old fashion candy sticks that I enjoy so much. Wish gift shop was bigger but found a...

The museum has a lot of interesting information, however, the layout has you going through the least interesting part first. The front is all just posters with information. And while it is interesting information, it's a little boring visually. The back room has the artifacts and other more interesting parts of the exhibit.

A great history of the NL Railway. A family place with lots to see for everyone of any age!! My son always had a love for trains so we always took him here. A train inspired play area is located inside for little ones to have some play time during their visit!! A real trian (Not in use) is located just outside the museum. My Kiddo loves to play on it, great spot for pictures !! Also located near downtown, with Many places to grab a bite to eat after your visit

So much interesting information, pictures and artefacts showing the history of rail and government maritime transport in NL. Also, they had a fun model train display that my 8 year-old spent at least an hour watching...(Actually, she was likely playing with the toy train activity stations beside it for most of that time, lol). Will definitely go back. Strongly recommended!

Lots of panels to read, with displays mixed in among the panels. An awesome toy train display that moves around a track very well detailed of the areas that the railways passes through. The jewel of the whole museum.
