AMAZING!!! The people are so kind and informative. There is plenty to see and do. There is always area for kids to play with the trains and even a ride on toy train for infants. They walk you through the cars and explain and show several things and how some things work. Pictures of what Molly looked like before she was restored and an awesome track with 3 moving trains- through the mountains, over the river, and around the city. They were so helpful and showed my son the coal room and the engine room. Let him sit and helped him climb. Got to get some very nice pictures. Awesome experience.
We truly enjoy our trips to the Railroad Museum. The owner & his staff are very knowledgeable about the railroad. They are attentive & answer even the smallest child's questions.
The place was great! A bit deceptive from the pictures and the description... there is only one train with I think three cars of historic pieces about railroading... Due to time constraints my son and I only walked around the outside of the train and snapped a few pictures. Staff was great. Would come back if we were in the area.
Took our 2 year old son here on a Saturday morning and had a wonderful time. Brian gave us a wonderful tour of the train that took about an hour. He was extremely knowledgable and personable. The rest of the volunteer staff were very sweet and did whatever they could to ensure my son enjoyed his visit. It was a fun experience for both him and for myself and my wife. We will definitely be coming back!
The train itself is the museum, which is a interesting way to go about things in itself. The thing that really made this place fun was how passionate the people working there are about trains. You could tell they really loved trains, which helped my 2 year old son really enjoy his time there.
