“Excellent Family Fun!”
5 of 5 stars

The museum contains many static displays depicting the rich railroading history of Nevada. It is especially spectacular on weekends during which the steam trains are running. Rides are reasonably priced and the volunteers are friendly and informative. Even without the trains running, the museum offers plenty of rolling stock to explore and activites for the kids. more

I found this Railroad museum was very disappointing and over $ for what was on display. Rude counter person in shop would not recommend at all; better attractions in area to spend your $ on more
