Wonderful display of farm machinery, working models, trucks, and we were lucky enough to arrive at the time of a swap meet. What more could a man want. The Brooks Town information about America's treatment of their Japanese citizens during the WW2 was soberring. Well worth a stop.

Lots of old steam engines. Now lots of trucks. A fun train for youngsters and oldsters to ride around on.

We stopped by to see this location after a few years of driving by when we stopped to gas up across the street. this complex is very large and is made up of a number of smaller museums. The staff was very friendly and even opened up on the motorcycle and Automobile museum for us. We arrived an hour or so before closing at 4. Allow a generous amount of time as it is very large with a lot of things to see.

This is a great 'day out' for the whole family. There's a live-steam riding railroad for the kids (and not so young!), steam tractors on parade, steam tractors running an old-fashioned wheat thrashing, a steam-powered sawmill, 100s of stationary engines - some small and some HUGE! Kerosene, diesel and gas tractors (even a Porsche tractor - yes!) of all colors (yellow - Caterpillar, red - Massey, green - John Deere, etc. Everyone blows their whistles at 12 noon, then there's a massive parade of tractors (some over 100 years old) at 2 pm. Ride a trolley, see the antique trucks and cars, spend some dollars at the swap meet. - all of this for only $10 for adults! Last weekend of July and first weekend of August. Just west of I-5 at the Brooks exit, just past the May Trucking depot. Other events around the year. See their website. Bring your camcorder and cameras http://www.antiquepowerland.com/

Our son lives in the area and we have driven by the museum many times without stopping. Not too impressive from the road, but wait until you get inside. We wanted to do something different with the grandsons and this was convenient. They not only have antique implements of husbandry (tractors and such), but another museum with semi's and yet another with cars and motorcycles. There is a working sawmill that operates on special occasions. They also fire up the old units and have a parade each year as well as an annual tractor/trailer semi show with quite a few participants. They are on different weekends. Unfortunately we just missed both, but our son went to the tractor event (The Steam-Up) and said it was pretty impressive. There are other events going on, so check out their website. Besides the museums and special events there is a small gauge railroad club that operates on weekends. Kids (and adults) can ride various trains pulled by steam engines,electric motor engines and whatever else. The club members volunteer their time and ask only for a small donation for the rides. The day we were there they had at least 7 different trains you could ride. There is more to see than we can mention here (more antiques, displays, miniature WORKING steam engines, and more) and the folks that work or volunteer there are super friendly and helpful. We're going back...next time without the grandkids!

I went here with my daughter for her National Guard family day. We enjoyed looking at all the old cars and trucks. Rode around the grounds on the old trolley and also rode the little train that they have there. The old saw mill is really cool!! It is GREAT fun for children of all ages!!
-
I went to the fair that they had. Wow! It was a blast! I totally reccommed it! There is something for all ages and a little history lesson too! Great food, music and fun for the whole family!

We try to go every year. There are many old steam engines, combines, bailers, tractors, hay wagons, and every kind of old farm machinery you could think of. Demonstrations of strength for these machines are fun. Large flea market, you can sit in an old train car, lots of good food and music. A nice family event
