Reviews
"Love the Train turn thing wish I could see it in action"
"It has a lot of real carriages no remakes although they have been restored. We had a tour. The man was real nice. If you are not part of the train ride, it cost $2 to get in. If you donate more you will get the tour. But can be walked through on your own"
"My wife and I came for the scenic railroad and got to have a private tour with Tim, he was a super wonderful guide and really knowledgeable! One of the highlights of the trip, honestly would come back again with family just for this :)"
"Gorgeous historic museum, free with the Train Ride from Cumberland. The sweet old lady at the museum gave us a beautiful, informative, authentic life experience based tour. This completely made our day!"
"This is a lovely carriage museum and if you are in the area, or even making this a destination, you won't be disappointed. So many carriages and sleighs on display and they have signs and even little sceneries set up to highlight the exhibit."
