A vast and unique selection of transportation related machines, accessories, and hardware. The displays are organized and laid out beautifully, with plenty of educational information. The museum also provides information on iconic figure in transportation history, like Bessie Coleman. Those representing the museum are very friendly and eager to help. Our family had a great experience at one of the coolest places I have visited. Much thanks to the whole organization.
