9 Best Train Museums to Visit in the U.S.

"I found NMOT, a short distance west of St. Louis in suburban Kirkwood, to be more than a railway museum: it showcases historic steam, diesel, and electric locomotives and passenger and freight equipment while also offering military aircraft, notable historic automobiles (including the custom "Dream Car" once owned by Bobby Darin), transit buses, and even a Mississippi River towboat. With more than 190 exhibits, it truly has something for every interest and is described as having the largest collection of transportation vehicles in the world." - Lydia Mansel Lydia Mansel Lydia Mansel is a writer with more than eight years of experience editing and writing for both brands and online publications—with a particular focus on travel, fashion, and lifestyle.
