Lots of cool trains, good if you like trains and history
There is definitely some neat, old equipment, but unfortunately the museum is under funded and undermanned. At least a more directed tour (even if just a map with points of interest) would help visitors get a little more out of the museum.nnOn the plus side there was a very knowledgeable staffer that had a lot of insight into the history of some of the old equipment. Also, there is a fairly active CSX line along the edge of the museum.
Definitely a unique experience. It is fun to see the old train cars up close. This place is full of history. The kids loved it. Wear closed toe shoes and I would not recommend bringing a stroller of any kind.
We were visiting Cincinnati and decided to stop by and I've never been happier we did so. Great place to visit, learn about the history of railroads, rail workers, and trains and safety. Dave was an amazing guide and answered every single question we had. We even got to throw a track. If you're interested in a great afternoon learning about history, please give this place a visit.
This place is 100% a hidden treasure in the area. It is all run by volunteers which is the reason for the limited hours but WHAT AN EXPERIENCE THIS WAS!!!! The volunteers were so knowledgeable about each car and railroad history. My son enjoyed it so much and I loved sitting in a little piece of history in the Pullman sleeper car! Great place
