Kingman Railroad Museum — Attraction in Kingman

An absolute GEM! We received first class service when we visited. Started off with a personalized tour by Mark who gave us background and insight on many of the donated artifacts. (Some that even came from his family, you really felt the love there!) We were then guided into the model room where there were multiple tracks going and it was fun checking out the replicas of some of our favorite spots in Kingman and the surrounding area. The energy was alive everytime a Santa Fe train passed by with its many cargo shipments. We then movies back into the museum side to check out the gift shop area and the kids played on the 2 toy train tables they have, while I hung out in the comfy train literature section. I loved the fact there was 2 toy train tables as it allowed both of the kids to operate their trains undisturbed by the other. Great feature! The amazing customer service coupled by the excitement of the trains and offerings of this museum, made for an adventurous afternoon. Thank you so much for giving us such a great memory...

This is in the train depot that still services amtrak. 1 large room with 3 different miniature train setups. All 3 different. One has a scale miniature of Kingman where the museum is. Freight trains go past on a regular basis which is very cool. The entry room has lots of pictures and artifacts from railroad history and the counter you pay at is the original. The hallway near the restrooms has some wonderful photos taken over the years by one of the members of the railroad history group that keeps this museum going. Lovely people there more than happy to answer questions and Lorraine even gave me some travel tips. Only $2 admission. I was by myself but I think kids would love it. Model trains (including thomas the tank engine inside, and if you are there more than a half hour, real trains going by...

If you've got grabby toddlers there is a kids area near the library section that has wooden trains they can play with while you enjoy the museum. They also have toy trains and conductor hats for kids you can purchase. Really cool place, I thoroughly enjoyed it with my kids and will be back in the future for more fun.

Friendly tip: while they do accept cards, do them a favor and bring cash. It's $2 entry per person and kids under 5 enter...
