This train museum was phenomenal. The kids interactive area was awesome and my kids loved the two trains you could explore outside. 10/10

Great small museum showcasing Wilmington's Railroad past. Kids will get a kick out of the model trains and play area. You can checkout the old steam engine locomotive and coal car and a caboose. The box car was inaccessible when we visited. Great mock-ups of the Interiors of train stations and offices.

Very nice museum dedicated to the Railroads. Outstanding model train layout that takes you back to being a kid again. Worth a visit.

We were hoping to get the shriners kids train for an upcoming school event but they're booked up. Any one have any suggestions of another similar option?
