Very fun place if you like model trains, pretty fun place if you don't. It is small so if you don't like model trains you will be done with it in about 10 mins after you press all the buttons to make the trains move (8 yr old son). If you are detailed oriented and are into trains like 12 yr old son then boy you going to spend hours watching and pickup things like how he believes they have a British signal (since it is on the left side of the tunnel) on an American track. As a parent just watching kids enjoy the trains is rewarding, having several nice benches to sit as they go around and you wait is more rewarding (it is small enough they...

Train Museum was a hit with our group of young kids (ages 2, 3, 5, 6) & adults alike. Kids entertained themselves for over an hour (pretty rare, especially for a museum...) with all the interactive exhibits & amazing attention to detail. Train enthusiasts will think they've died and gone to heaven!! Even non-enthusiasts are sure to find something of interest among the huge collection of train paraphernalia (some dating back to the 1800s) and other antique items on display. As an added bonus, a wooden train table (stocked with a ton of tracks, accessories & train cars) sits in the lobby/entrance area so kids can create their own tiny train...

it felt very nostalgic coming back here as an adult as I haven’t been since I was a kid. Pictured is my dad who is a HUGE train lover, he has his own train layouts in his home and we started posting videos of his layout on youtube - @poppopstrainroom. give him a view/like it will literally make his day.

we went in to the train museum with my nephews, they had so much fun pushing the buttons and making trains and figures move. I definitely would recommend going with your kids, and the admission is very cheap.

you can go at your own pace and spend as much time as you need. thought it was really cool that they had a lego...

Disappointing. Lots to look at but left museum not learning anything about the history, heritage or manufacturing of toy trains. Many antique toy trains nicely displayed in cabinets but with very little historical narrative or background. Mainly donor info included but nothing telling me what I’m looking at or why the piece is important. Operating layouts are only highlight but during my visit, only one layout had an operating train. I am a train enthusiast and collector of toy trains and my visit lasted less than 15 minutes.
