Found this one day on a website advertising national train day or something. First time we went I bought a years pass. Well worth the money. It includes 4 admissions + 4 tickets to ride the train. Since bought another years pass. I wouldn't go on a really hot or really cold day. Mostly outside and in big open warehouses. More

And so did we. Admission is low, there are tons of old trains, and you can climb aboard most of them. Once they complete the full loop for the train ride, this place will be perfect. Any train enthusiast will love seeing the way people used to travel. An added bonus is being able to board the old Atlanta buses... More

I consider myself an "amateur" train enthusiast, meaning I love trains but don't know all the trivia. I stumbled upon this little gem on the internet. I had no idea a train museum was just a short trip down I-85 from us. It was great, worth every penny for the price of admission. They have a few exhibits in a... More

My family and I had a blast celebrating my son's 2yr old birthday here! My son is a train fanatic and was excited from the moment we got there! The 20 min train ride was a real thrill for him, and hosting the party in one of the train cars made things really intimate. Absolutely a great spot for tots! More

Don't show up expecting a museum with tidy exhibits.. you are here to see TRAINS, and trains are big and dirty. This musuem is very accessible and you'd never know it was there if you didn't look for it. What a great treat for my son (and me) when we went on "national train day" a few weeks ago. There... More

This is a very large place with all kinds of transportation equipment. If you have any interest in trains and are in the area, it is worth the visit. More
