Can I take pictures of my children by the old trains inside and out? Please advise the hours of operations, specially on saturdays, can we buy the tickets at the place? Thank you.

Yes you can take pics in and out. Off hand im not sure of hrs of operations but 1st saturday of the month is always free admission.

Some trains are not available for entering, just follow the signs or ask the staff members...you may get surprised. Times are on their web site and tickets are available at the entrance

Yes, you can buy tickets there. However, the website isn't consistent on reflecting accurate hours so I would call ahead because there are times on weekends when they're closed setting up for Thomas the Train etc. And you can take pictures inside and outside the trains, we did!

Yes I took a lot of photos when my family went there it's really cool and every first Saturday of the month it's free

You can enter any train with paid admission, unless it's the presidental train that's an extra 5$. The first Saturday of every month is free.

They open at 11 on Sat. I found the staff very accommodating.

Yes, you can take pictures. Hours are posted on their site.

I went the Sunday after the free Saturday, and we had the whole place to ourselves for the first few hours. It was perfect for taking pics of our kids

You can find hours on line. Keep an eye out on Groupon; they have discount tix.
