Chi-Town Union Station

Rail museum

👍👍 Really good time for my wife, 2 kids (4 & 1.5yrs old) and I. Great layout with tons of trains in operation. Only $5/adult and all kids 5 and under are free with paying adult. We did two laps and were in and out in just over 1 hour. I could have hung out longer! Highly recommend checking it ou...

Northern Ohio Railway Museum

Rail museum

👍👍 Friendly staff and a lot of cool things to see. Transportation and rail enthusiasts will love the collection of antique vehicles and any history buff will enjoy the place too. The location is somewhat remote but it’s relatively accessible from Akron/Cleveland. I’ll be back for sure!

Fostoria Iron Triangle Railpark

Rail museum

😐 Very clean restrooms, nice covered lounging area to relax. The NS line is right next to the fence. The downfall, in my opinion, is the other lines you just don't know the way they are gonna go, so you're running a lot to be able to video them .

Michigan Transit Museum

Rail museum

👍👍 It was a fun short little train ride (from the Joy Blvd Park). The kids loved it, lots of cute books and trinkets to purchase if you want as well. If you go to the front of the train after the ride is over you can ask the conductor for a quick tour like we did.

Mt. Perry Scenic Train - Zanesville and Western

Rail museum

😠 False advertising!! Don't know how they could charge you any money for that experience. It was sketchy to say the least.They tell you it's a 40 minute scenic ride. It was maybe 10 minutes and we were happy about that because this was a joke. Don't waste your money or time!!!

Dennison Railroad Depot Museum

👍👍 One of the best museums we have visited. This one definitely has a special historical impact and story. We loved the short film at the beginning.

Salamanca Rail Museum

Rail museum

👍👍 Such a neat place. The gift shop is ultra nice. Hours are actually 12pm to 4pm, but it's super nice outside of the station also. The one who works there is very knowledgeable. I am so, so happy that the Salamenca Rail Museum is actively working with the Seneca Nation to properly expand the Rail. Lo...
