This is my grandson's favorite place to go on the weekends! The volunteers are extremely friendly, very knowledgeable, and a lot of fun to talk with. Great for all ages. Several rooms/areas on two floors with different gauge trains. Also some hands-on areas for the younger train lovers.

Excellent place to take the family and children to experience the history of the local railroad industry; as well as the entertainment of watching and hands on displays of the elaborate model constructions.
