Forney Museum of Transportation, Denver

This is a must-see in the Denver area if you love ❤️ trains, automobiles, and motorcycles. A little off the beaten path, but well worth your time. Nicely laid out collection with one of the largest steam locomotives ever built. Along with some unique automobiles and motorcycles and an impressive side collection of model cars, along with a nice gift shop. If you like Honda and Indian motorcycles 🏍, you will love their collection. Very friendly staff of volunteers are willing to discuss their collection in detail. If I lived in the Denver area, I would be a member and volunteer. We enjoyed our visit and highly recommend this place 👏👍!

We had come to town from Texas and looking for something to do on an unexpected free day. We found plenty of parking upon arrival and entered into the gift shop and the initial gallery. Tremendous collection of scale models and diecast vehicles to start out the adventure and then we moved into the main galleries. Incredible collection of civilian vehicles from the past 120 years and a wide range of transportation from the same period. The Big Boy train is truly impressive and hard to fathom it actually moving at 60 miles an hour 😮We did enjoy our trip but the only caveat is if you have young children, they will find a little to do except climbing into a few vehicles. There’s not much to do for them and my seven and five year old were bored quickly due to a lack of interaction. But still a great museum and looking forward to a repeat visit when I have more time to look around for myself :)
