We are so fortunate to enjoy the Twin Cities as our playground. This weekend's adventure with our grandson was to visit the train museum, ride the train and visit Santa. There was so much to do. It was one of the best adventures we have had yet. The Christmas music with children participating was amazing and provided us old folks a bit of a rest while escorting our young ones. Popcorn and apple juice hit the spot. Best of all we were fortunate to ride the train 3 whole times. My young grandson said exactly what we were thinking... "I want to come back soon, Grammy!" Indeed, we will be back soon!
We visited the museum for Santa's Train Shop and it was really, really nice! The decorations were so thoughtful and must have taken a long time to set up. Every single staff person and volunteer was absolutely kind and helpful. And the old trains are just fun to look at! Highly recommend going there not just to see Santa!!!
The museum was great and I got to see no. 328 and me and my dad got to go in the cab of no. 328 and the guy who volunteered there had a lot of information about steam locomotives and the projects in the museum.
Perfect 90 minute ride! Enjoyed walking the train cars and seeing the outside scenery. Especially enjoyed the ride back on the last car's outside deck. I have 2 littles 2&4 and it was the perfect length with lots to see and learn. Our car host was very knowledgeable and let us know when special things were coming up like the waterfall, caves and river crossing. Highly recommend!
I’ve lived in St. Paul for 10+ years and never knew this was here. It was the best hidden gem that I’ve exposed to all my friends and family. Hosted my sons 3rd birthday party and it was a huge success. People couldn't have been any kinder and the kids were in pure heaven with the caboose ride. We will be back in December to see Santa!
We had an absolutely wonderful time at the transportation museum. A nice little gem in St. Paul. Our toddler and the adults 4 of us loved going into the different cars and touring the round house. Bonus points for the model train display too - so many trains to watch on the different tracks. The short train ride out and back was just long enough to keep the kids’ attentions and really get them excited. We wound up doing this twice. We will absolutely be back this winter.
The most popular "Fall Colors Train" tickets were sold out a few weeks ago, so we chose the "Train Ride to Marine on St. Croix" instead. It turned out to be a smart choice since the trip was amazing. My hub and I had a great time enjoying the gorgeous view, so glad we captured the autumn foliage along the St. Croix river area this year P.S. Bring a bottle of hot coffee for yourself since some sections may be chilly - they made the whole trip a total difference!
Great place to take the kids and learn about trains. You can walk through some great cars and imagine what it was like to travel by rail.
Not as big as I would have liked, but some very knowledgeable folks there. Best part is getting on some of the trains themselves.
We went for the first time for their holiday train experience with our 2.5 year old and had a blast! He's super into trains now, and was thrilled to meet Santa, explore the trains inside, and get to ride a real train outside. We'll definitely be back!Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYesPrice for adult entry$16–20
