My family and I have been here numerous times and the museum is very thorough and shows a fantastic cross-section of the history of railroading in Pennsylvania. The main hall has numerous engines both steam and diesel and various freight and passenger cars. When the weather is nice you can go into the outdoor yard which has there turntable and... more

I visited this location with a friend this summer. I highly recommend it to anyone that enjoys Trains and Model trains. It is a very good place to take children 5 and over. There is a large collection of old Steam Trains from all over the country. Also a building near by with model trains that is outstanding. more

I'm not a train buff but our family did enjoy the museum. We also bought train tickets so the price was not too expensive. Be sure to go into the 2nd "depot" looking building. It has lots of minatures and stuff the kids can "operate". My 9 yr old girl liked the simulator also. You can tour part of the... more

We also visited the National ToyTrain Museum and the ChooChoo Barn at Strasburg, and they too were a wonderful experience for the 3 of us. My grandson asked on the way... more

The Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania was fantastic, much better than your typical state railroad museum. An admitted train and history enthusiast I found the museum to be exceptionally well laid out and staffed by wonderfully helpful people. My wife, who has almost no interest in trains and history, actually admitted she enjoyed the visit as well. The newest addition to... more
