   YOU NEED TO GO THERE! The Wheels Museum was an amazing surprise! I went there because my godson was visiting and he is into trains a lot and I expected to just go through, look at trains and leave. I could not have been more wrong! The volunteers are excited to show their projects and explain how everything works, which made it so much fun for us! The kids got to ride in a train, answered questions and won prizes. We got to pet a beautiful volunteer dog and in the end we stayed there much longer than expected because every volunteer had an interesting story to tell about the things that were on display in the museum. Thank you to all the volunteer for this amazing expereience!

   I took my grandkids on Presidents Day. We arrived about 9:30 AM. No lines, volunteers running model trains , many old vehicles. They even gave my grandkids a ride on a train! This is an awesome outing for anyone who loves old wheeled vehicles.

   Fun place for all ages, lots of cool exhibits and models. Very well done and very friendly staff. Completely free to see everything. The only thing I feel needs work is the gift shop inside.
