Description

This train-lover's museum is out on the northeastern limits of the city, near Fort Road. However, if the golden age of steam is for you, it is well worth the visit. See a restored railway station, bunk house, water tower, and fire hall. There is a working steam train that you can ride on, and another is in the process of being restored along with numerous carriages, cars, and railway artifacts. During the summer holiday weekends, why not ride a passenger train?
