  I take my son here often and he loves it. They get to have a Thomas the train day where Thomas comes and gives rides to the kids. It’s best if you get a membership for the year. They have indoor trains and a nice play area for smaller children and a little store for souvenirs as well!!

  Small and tucked away down by the water, this museum did not disappoint! Our son loves trains, our daughter is along for the ride, but everybody had a good time here. There's an actually train engine by the entrance and a caboose to climb around on. An entire room was filled with a model train metropolis. There were plenty of kid interactive opportunities and everything was very clean and well kept.
