Texas Transportation Museum

This was a great treat. If you want a low pace attraction for the little ones to enjoy with no line... this is great. They have a playground and an actual short train ride. The staff is all volunteers so please be kind and pick their brains. Some have been supporting the facility for a decade and can provide a lot of history about the museum and San Antonio if you sit down and listen. Worth stopping by. FYI if you are into trains collectibles, some of the volunteers can provide some info about upcoming events.

We had the BEST time at their Spook-track-ula this weekend! 🎃🧡🌟 What a great event for family fun! Well done, TTM! You always do a fabulous job; this museum is a shining gift to the community, especially to those who are train enthusiasts 🚂

My family had such a fun time at the Texas Transportation Museum. I loved the simplicity of the museum and how it was not crowded. There were several sweet older guys that interacted with my two kiddos. One gentleman took the time to explain some of the different mechanisms on the train to my son. It seemed like the volunteers/workers genuinely enjoyed being there. We will definitely be going back to visit again.

You can tell the volunteers love this place a lot. The trains are the main attraction for me, but they've done a great job with everything else too. Our kids absolutely love it as well. Wish we could go more often!

This place is amazing. Took my grandson and stayed four hours. He had a blast. For a three year old u could see the look in his eyes on how he was amazed at looking at history he definitely is an old soul. He loved the train simulators and the train ride. Will be booking hos four birthday party here The staff are so nice. Will be making this place one of our weekend fun days.

Interesting museum to visit if you’re into trains and old cars. The miniature trains were really interesting for my 2 yo. The ticket also includes a short train ride and I think the last ride is at 2 pm so be sure to arrive there before that. I recommend visiting it when it’s nice out because it won’t be fun during Texas heat in the summer.

What a great place for kids!! The volunteers were super kind and very friendly. They were also very knowledgeable and were willing to slow down and speak with my kids. One even let them control one of the train setups. Can definitely say my kids were hooked and wanted to leave and get our own train set. The detail of some of these models were so neat and a great was to teach. We got to ride a train twice, view their garden trains, their indoor model trains, see the old vehicles and busses. My kids wished they could have gotten on the busses but they were a bit worn out. Very neat and we plan to go back as the kids get a little older as well.

Amazing trip for anyone who has an interest in traind. Family friendly and a good shady place to have a picnic. Plenty of space for kids to have a run about.
