Loved this place! They also had older volunteers that were very knowledgeable concerning displays and old antique railroad items. Their model train display was awesome to view.
The museum's collection is extensive and gives you a great feel for how important the railway systems have been to the area. We spent an hour touring the museum and really enjoyed our time there. Our 4 year old son was mesmerized by the stories, and even our 2 year old stayed focused!
It's a great place to go if you love trains and you will have fun.
Calvin gave us the full tour of the museum. He was very knowledgeable, shared many wonderful stories, and gave us a hands-on look at the development of the railway around Richmond.
Recommended for a train enthusiast.
What an absolutely wonderful hidden treasure in Richmond! We visited on a Saturday and found several of the gentlemen working there in the station master's quarters, singing happy birthday to one of their own.
I highly recommend the museum: warm, friendly staff, a great collection, and incredibly interesting stories, all in the historic building that once housed the train station.
The model train layout was also very interesting.
Smaller than I expected, but fascinating. The docents were very friendly, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic. The outdoor display included a small locomotive and a fairly well restored caboose.
Not crowded, friendly and knowledgeable guides.
