This place was amazing, very friendly people who run this great place. The trolly was built back in 1896, and theres an amazing story that goes along with it. The only reason why this trolly is still in existence is because of Love..lol it's TRUE. Mr Johnson use to ride the trolly all the time back in the early 1900's and while riding this trolly he met the women of his dreams, it's TRUE, they fell in love and married and spent there life together. But in 1926 the trolly had stopped running and at one point the trolly was going to be sold off for scrap and Mr Johnson found out and he couldn't let that happen, he didnt want to see his memories destroyed, because back then they would of sold it and they would of burned it so they could get the steel and metal of out it for scrap, Mr Johnson couldn't let that happen so he offered to buy it. The trolly was then transported to his farm, it cost Mr Johnson $100 for the trolly, and back then a $100 wasent easy to come by in 1926, living on a farm wage, and that wasent much. And so the trolly sat in Mr Johnson's field for over 60 years and in 1990 the restoration started and as you can see today it's up and running perfectly. This place is a great place to bring kids and have fun. Theres plenty to do there and theres plenty of things to ride on. The Museum and gift shop is amazing, and this place is all ran on donations. If your in the area or you dont have anything to do check this place out, I live 20 min away and I'm definitely going back, we didnt have enough time to check the place out in the hr we were there,but we still had a great time and plus they have an old hand pump cart you can ride on down the tracks, but the only way to ride on it is if you let the 94 year old lady who runs it, take you for the ride, and yes I said it, 94 years old and shes still going strong, I wish I had my picture taken with her when I was there, Next time I go I'll get the picture. Any train lovers out there, will love this place..

So worth stopping by. Cute train trip lots of history but the trying the railway pump car was awesome, kids ask to go back if we are in the area and very short money

Everyone needs to come here at least twice in their lives. Good hearted sincere historians salvaging an important block of area past. You'll love it, but not quite as much as the kids.

Nice little museum. Not much track for the trolley. About 1,000 ft. Great for those with small children.
