n.c.& st. l. depot and railroad museum印象

For what it was - it was OK. We did not go in the museum, just the gift shop, and we ate at the restaurant. The food was buffet style and somewhat mediodre. The gift shop was meager. Not bad though, for a day trip.

The rail depot is a neat piece of history. There are some some old engines outside, a rail car, and a passenger car. The flag pole is a train whistle (just pull the cord). Inside there is a lot of history and exhibits. There is a huge train set model that is a replica of old Jackson. The depot is a registered city park and it's city operated yet privately funded. The hours are strange depending on amount of visitors so if your just passing through, call ahead to make sure they are open. Have fun !!!!!!

Found this museum while on a geocaching run. Went in and visited the museum, it is everything trains and railroad. So if you are a train enthusiast, model train person, railraod history buff, you really have to visit. Look up the museum director, David Faulk. He is very personable and has a wealth of history on the railroads and how they benefited Jackson, Tennessee. Great story teller!!!

Can't beat the price ! FREE ! Kids enjoyed going through the box cars, museum was small, but well maintained & very well laid out.

We arrived after they closed for the day so I can only comment on the outside displays but we liked what we saw. A couple of cabooses and a kitchen/dining car(?). But they had other displays that were hands-on. I'd tell you what they were but you'd laugh cuz I'm not a "railroad" person and will call them the wrong thing. But one was were you can pull the levels they would to move the switches, a cart that runs on the rail and you have to pump in order to move, and something else that changes the flags from red to green - a couple of others but I can't even describe them. Just a nice place to get out of the car and walk around to see things. The inside of the depot looked very interesting as well and we're sorry we missed it.

Interesting if you like trains. We liked it because it was kid friendly as well. Can't beat the price, FREE! They do take donations. Only took us about 30 min. to go through it.

fancy not being open on a weekend when there are tourists driving around looking for places to explore and experience! Enough said

took a visiting friends two boys to see huge model train. the man that runs this is super nice. since we were the only ones there he let the boys come in and help run the train.

The people working were friendly and knowledgeable. I learned a lot about the train services that used to be in the area.They had a very nice model train exhibit and had a dining car and caboose that you can board and tour.They also had some old pictures from the old railroad days.It is also very interactive which children will love. If you are traveling between Nashville and Memphis it is worth a visit.
