 Travel Town is a wonderful outdoor museum of trains including boxcars, cabooses and a few steam locomotives. A few of the trains, still on tracks, are located in an open-air pavilion for preservation purposes. A small train takes you for a ride around Travel Town.

 Inside the buildings are old-fashioned vehicles such as carriages, wagons and antique automobiles.

There are picnic tables you can use for lunch if you wish to bring it.
