Loved seeing all the history there. So many interesting pieces to look at.

Its free to get in and very nice hobbyists willing to take you on a tour to explain the difrant train set ups

5 star all the way, plan out your visit when they are having an open house. It is an amazing place, we had lots of fun doing the scavenger hunt, people there were very friendly to my kids and patient. Highlight of our trip to Hendersonville. Boys and girls, people of all ages will enjoy this one.

Sarurday Market - Lots of veggies. Our first time. Gigantic local cantalope, lots of tomatoes. Almost too many ppl without masks and TOO many not keeping a minimum 6 ft so only 4 stars!

Farmers market was not as populated as usual, but Raspberry Fields has amazing fresh loaves of bread!! Jam will be available soon.

Wow, love the detail and the personal tour.

Fantastic little place! Model train setups are extremely detailed, well worth a visit. Model club members are enthusiastic about answering any questions you or your kid might have. Great craftsmanship for adults to admire, while being very welcoming of small children - stools and benches all over so they get a great view!

This place is pretty cool. Your experience will depend on the volunteer thats working there. Weve been twice and each was a different experience. I must warn you, they take their trains SERIOUSLY. Do not make any jokes referencing to the Addams family trains that crash into each other. You will get the snake eye and no one will speak to you again. I would not recommend this place for children under five.

Cool stuff, limited though

Fun, free visit for young ones. Great volunteers that love thier visitors.

Whats not to love!! Its all about trains!! Love the setup in the back where little train conductors can go and operate the trains!!

Friendly staff good experience for the kids

Love my trains. Great place.

Love teains, this makes me long even more for passenger trains here in USA that the public can afford.

The Historic Railroad Depot has been renovated and is the home of the Historic Railroad Club. There are several model trains, tracks, buildings both large and small. One railroad can be operated by children and features Thomas the train and his friend Emily. There is a large model train and track outside featuring Thomas and Percy. There are always club members present and ready to talk trains and answers questions. Open Wed. 10 a.m. till 2 p.m. and Sat. 1-3 p.m. Admission is free.

Kids had a blast watching the trains and the staff are very helpful and informative.

Excellent place to visit. Very friendly hosts.

A destination for anyone interested in trains! H-O trains spanned 3 rooms in a restored depot. Dozens of tracks all intertwining and a G scale outside. A Thomas the Tank Engine track for kids to control. My son was enthralled and cant wait to go back. Thanks to all of the volunteers who work to make this a dream come true for so many kids and kids at heart!

Fascinating model railroads, great for kids and adults of all ages. Enjoyed going inside an old caboose, seeing all of the detail in the models, and the outdoor garden railroad area (complete with a model steam engine that actually runs on steam). Our toddler son had so much to look at and enjoy! Admission was free, but donations are gladly accepted.

Nice old historic depot and very interesting museum featuring everything about trains.

Great model train displays. Indoor and outside. Also a real caboose.

Spectacular model railroad layout in an old railroad depot. Depicts Western North Carolina landscape and towns. Well worth a visit.

WWonderful place for Rhodes who love model trains. HO gauge travel through mountainous scenery. Also a very nice G scale outdoor layout. Call to check on when they are open.

Amazing model RR track that goes throughout the whole building great place for kids its free but they do have a donation box and places like this dont stay around forever if no one donates anything and its so incredible the time an work put into the track its worth seeing especially if you grew up in the area

Very interesting Museum dedicated to model railroading. Very knowledgeable staff that is willing to talk with you and especially the children about the railroad. Located in an old railroad Depot in Hendersonville North Carolina.

Loved the model railroad displays but wish they were open later than 2pm. And boy they are ready to leave at 2, at 5 till, they shut everything down. Kids wanted to climb into the Caboose but they had locked it at 1:50pm. So maybe they should report their hours as 1:45 instead? Just disappointing for little ones when you think you still have a few minutes to show them stuff. But older people running it so maybe they forget those sort of things.

I loved this place free parking free entry caboose is pretty cool I used a walker amazing true to life scene of trains mtns people little cars trees its so cool open wedsdays and Saturday only. kid & family friendly

What a fun place to go! It is an education as well as exciting as you follow trains from room to room through the highly detailed layout of Western Carolina mountains, towns, and then a depiction of Asheville/ Hendersonville train stations. The men are so gracious if you ask them questions about the realistic work of art. I loved it!

Huge train layout to enjoy

Loved all the care and effort that went into laying the tracks and town with the rock scenery...lots of little vignettes to discover.

Anyone who is interested in the railroads should go see this place. The model train set up has to be the most detailed I have ever seen.

Fun free activity to see the model trains and walk inside the coboose

I loved this place...never knew it was there. Very worth a visit for everyone.

My 3 year old son loves this place!

The best! The volunteers are great with kids

The best model railroad museum in Western North Carolina. Kids love it.

Great place for people of all ages to enjoy and get some history about the local rails.

Great collection and display of model railroad trains and memorabilia in the old historic train depot.

Outstanding, well worth seeing.
