  • This museum is so nice! Fun family events for the holidays, and full of history for an anytime visit! I took my 5 year old grandson there today and he loved it as did I! We will definitely plan to go....  more

  • Fun excursion, especially for the littles who enjoy trains and vehicles. The wooden train sets, puzzles and model train inside the station were a huge hit with our group, and the caboose was fun to walk through and get an idea of an "office" in the train. Thank you to all the volunteers/staff who were friendly and welcoming to us as we enjoyed the museum spaces.
  • Beautiful building housing an interesting railroad museum. Available to rent for parties or reunions up to about 40-45 guests. Has tables and chairs and a kitchen to prep and serve. Staff very friendly and responsive. I was there for a private party so there was no admission fee. There's a small fee to visit museum.
  • Great place for a family outing. Enjoy some time inside learning all about trains with interactive displays for children. Bring a picnic lunch and enjoy the scenic setting outside to end your day together.
  • Nice museum for Northern Virginia history. With a mixture of railroad, Civil War and transportation. A "N" scale layout in the caboose is a plus.
  • Interesting find. I stopped here while geocaching and learned more about the Fairfax Station railroad than I expected to ever know :)
