The museum is mostly housed in a boxcar. It is packed full of interesting artifacts and historical displays of the construction and operation of the railway. Railfans and history buffs will really appreciate the time and effort taken to offer these displays to the public. We spent about 35 minutes here. It is definitely not a tourist trap,but rather an interesting display of historical facts geared for people interested in U.S. and railroad history. We learned a lot about Mr. Flager, his family and the railroad he built.

For being such a significant element in the development of the Keys, we had thought there would be a larger building and display - but the information they have packed into this railroad car is very interesting and informative. Well worth your time to read, learn and appreciate the effort taken to build the railroad and the impacts it has had. We noted some of the displays needed some upkeep - It would be worth the county/state to expand on this important part of the state's history.

Actually, I think this is not closed. They build this in a not original location with a not original building just as a tourist trap. Forget it. Nothing realy about it

Nice little museum, with a scaled-down replica of how the workers built the former Overseas Railroad from the mainland down to the Keys!
