All aboard! You won't want to miss the train! You would think at the NC Transportation Museum you won't have to worry about missing the train, because well, it's a museum. BUT...a transportation museum wouldn't be complete without train rides! But we'll get to that in a bit...
The museum is 57 acres of special events and fascinating exhibits. There are a number of restored diesel locomotives that you can have a look at during your trip. Learn all about the history of these revolutionary inventions that date all the way back to the 1930s. They are fascinating and intricate pieces of machinery that changes the way the country worked, and lived. Amazing how they work!
Heard of the Wright brothers? Well, if you're an international visitor at the museum, chances are you wouldn't have been able to get there without these guys! Have a look at a full sized replica of the Wright Flyer - pretty cool to think they got that off the ground!
The Roadhouse is the largest every constructed and is now home to over 40 restored locomotives and rail cars, of which if you re a fan, have a look at the Bumper to Bumper exhibit which is an impressive collection of antique cars.
Trains rides! We didn't forget...you can sit and enjoy a 25 minute narrated train ride pulled by a real antique diesel engine! Daily from Memorial Day to Labor Day you can catch these fun experiences! Don't forget your conductors hat!
