When renovations are complete and the model railroad exhibits are back, this will be a gem. The reasonable entrance fee is apparently matched by the government 10x. The outside train exhibits suffered the most. The pictures of the devastation from Ike give an appreciation of how far they have come, and how much work was needed - especially for an... More

By the way, there is free... More
