    The train museum is free to the public. But accept donations. A ride on the train is $10 and lasts around 30 minutes. I had an enjoyable time. The staff were both helpful and knowledgeable.

    Very enjoyable if you are into trains and big mechanical things. If you are visiting Boulder City, NV then this is worth a visit. We did not take the Rail Tour because it was over 90 deg. that day and my wife did not want to be in the direct sun. I think the Rail Tour is a great idea. I that the Model Railroad exhibit would have been open, but it was closed for some reason.

    Not a large museum, so it won't take too long to go thru the exhibits, but make sure you allow 45 minutes for the (very gentle) train ride. The old caboose and mail cars were very interesting, I didn't imagine that the trains contained a "Post Office" sorting station. We also really enjoyed the model trains, built inside an actual train! The scale models are real works of kinetic art! Sadly, the Pullman car is still being refurbished, so we weren't allowed to tour it. And on the day we came, the tiny "kiddee?" train wasn't running, but overall this is a good place to bring your family.

    There is so much to see! So much education & history represented here. The actual trains are under cover so you get a first hand experience. There are even some trains you can walk thru & they are set up just like they were originally.

    My mom and I had an opportunity to visit this museum over the summer. It’s a really nice little find. The employees are some of the friendliest people I’ve met. One of the gentleman on the train ride went out of his way to make sure everyone was comfortable and shared different pieces of history and facts about the trains. I keep missing the steamers and look forward to trying the pedal carts on a future visit.
