The Martin & Frances Lehnis Railroad Museum — Attraction in Brownwood

It was one of the best experiences ever. We really loved it. It is worth the drive and visit. They have a very fun train ride that even adults can sit. It’s free and they take us around 6 or 7 times. It’s such a fun experience and brought the kid back in me. My husband enjoyed it a lot of too.

Inside they have two model trains that you can go inside and take a look. You can also go into the building where they give you free coffee, have a cute coffee shop and also they have so many model trains. Their set up is so beautiful. The people are also so friendly and hospitable and very knowledgeable. They showed us how they set it up and also different sizes of model trains that were available. Some are so tiny.

We would definitely be back soon to see what else they have. If you have kids I would definitely recommend you to...

The museum is incredibly well done architecturally. The building alone is worth going to the museum. The exhibits are thoughtful and show the history of the railroad in the area. My 5 year old loved seeing and interacting with the models they have. The models room is huge! There is an observation deck where you can sit outside and watch the trains go by. Across the street is the old depot that is now the commerce building. They do have two antique train cars for people to explore, but they were closed the day we went due to the rain (totally understandable to keep the cars in great shape) and they have a little train ride outside, but again it was also closed due to the rain, but looked like a lot of fun. The train ride is $2 per person and goes around the old rail yard. Adults are $4, and...

The first thing you will notice, aside from the spectacular view, is the super friendly staff who are very respectful and patient with children. My family and I loved the experience. While there isn’t a lot to tour, if you take your time to enjoy the view of the train model table and everything they have on display, you will have a great time with your family. Additionally, you can walk inside the actual train and take a trip back in time! The train ride is enjoyable for both kids and adults. We absolutely loved it, and the kids did too. The train operators were friendly and patient with the children, and you can tell they genuinely enjoy what they do, even if it’s just on the weekends....
