"Very interesting. No charge, but small donation or more appreciated. Some work/improvements going on inside at this time. Some souvenirs available. Ample parking. Pictures allowed."
"Went to the Sallie house and spent the night with West Michigan Paranormal Team. Lots of fun and history in the area. We had a tornado warning siren go off and it was a downpour of rain with thunder that added a complete different feel to the house. Very good time."
"This museum is quaint and provides a rather pleasant experience for those that enjoy learning history of the central United States. It also provides an enormous amount of history and fascination for those that crave knowledge about the history of Santa Fe train travel from the 20th century. The person I was touring with found the displays very interesting and exciting; they are a major passenger train fan. It's definitely worth a stop."
"Excellent history stop in the old depot. Atchison holds a lot of history & it's packed into this place. Great picture ops sitting in the old train engine. Free will donation so anyone can visit! Several other fun quick stops in this town...highly recommend spending a cpl hours if passing through."
"I love the historical detail in this museum and the restoration of the old depot to be used by the Chamber of Commerce and the Museum."
