An old train station in my town has been converted into a museum. They have some old locomotives on display outside and a lot of other neat items and model trains inside. But then I discovered that there’s also a car museum! It was small, but impressive. About 15 concourse-condition vehicles, pretty much all pre-war.

There was a gun museum, too.

And of course, here are some train stuffs:

I wanted to get more pics of the real trains, but I was also chasing a toddler the whole time.

A handcar is a metaphor for life.

Neat little Daylight Express with the model trains.

Train nerd on the 833 was originally stored to be a parts source for 844, they stripped some of it but then realized the 838 was in better shape so they donated the 833.

Also tha turbine and DD40X awesome.

On rail roads. I’d have my own personal mode of transportation that would be even more luxurious than a private jet. It’d be amazing.

The Browning Gun Museum upstairs is mind blowing. The Browning brothers were contract designers for everybody it appears. And a lot of their guns are there. The Ogden Station Museum is a must see.

+ when you get tired of operating it, you could just leave it in autopilot autooperator and go have some lunch in a luxurious traincar.
