This spot is a cool mix of history and outdoor space, built around an old railway roundhouse. It’s a chill place where you can see real trains, learn about how they worked, and hang out in a park that’s right in the middle of the city. The area is most popular for its collection of vintage locomotives and the train museum.
- Real, old-school trains you can check out up close 🚂
- A museum inside the roundhouse with hands-on stuff
- Open green space for relaxing or snapping pics
- Steam Whistle Brewery is also inside the roundhouse building
- See Real Trains Up Close: You can walk around and even climb on some of the old locomotives. It’s not every day you get to see these massive machines in person.
- Learn Train History in a Fun Way: The museum has interactive exhibits, so you actually get to touch and try things, not just look at signs.
- Chill in a Unique Park: The park is a good spot to relax, eat lunch, or just take a break, all while being surrounded by cool train stuff and city views.
- No special dress code, but comfy shoes are a good idea 👟
- Best time to visit is during the day, especially late morning or early afternoon for the best light and fewer crowds
- Book tickets ahead, a few days ahead, especially on weekends, if you want to visit the museum
