(Translated) Well thought out, fantastic location and lots of additional attractions for everyone. The whole history of railways and a large number of exhibits encourage you to see this fantastic place with great potential called Railway Museum, which I personally highly recommend, and that the CN tower is nearby is just a plus, you get two in one. (Original) Dobrze pomyślane , lokalizacja fantastyczna i mnóstwo dodatkowych atrakcji dla każdego .Pokazana cala historia kolejarstwa a także duża ilość eksponatów zachęca do obejrzenia tego fantastycznego o dużym potencjale miejsca zwanego Railway Museum a przeze mnie osobiście gorąco polecane , a że w pobliżu jest CN tower to tylko na plus ,można zaliczyć dwa w jedynym .

Loved the train driving lesson. Such a small admission cost $5 to see the history stored inside and out front.

Can be a better guided place. No simulation. Children rides seems limited to weekends although there is no information available anywhere.

It was fun. Just riding that mini train was awesome!

Nice little museum, small but with lots of info. The staff was very friendly. I wish we could've seen the back where they renovate the trains but I understand why that's not possible. We enjoyed it!

Robert Williamson

Great spot if you are interested in trains. It has a growing collection and needs donations and volunteers!

Gordon Lambie

It's not huge, but this museum has twice been a godsend to me on days where I just felt overwhelmed by the hypertourism next door. Maybe not the best choice if you don't like trains, but a real winner for folks who don't feel up to long lineups and expensive admission prices.

Inside, I do not know, but outside, the Toronto Railway Museum is really interesting to discover with, among other things, many old trains, station buildings, and railway equipment.

Outdoor part is really cool but the indoor area is pretty small

They recently opened up the train ride for a weekend. Tickets are purchased online in advance. There are 6 tickets per 10 minute timeslot. From experience, the train ride and subsequent cleaning took less than 10 minutes. As a result, our 12:20pm trip departed at 12:13pm. I believe they make up the trips at the end anyway, so don't worry about missing your time due to their accidental accelerated schedule. My daughter enjoyed the train ride. She wanted to go again, but we needed to go home for lunch.

Lars Bates

Good railway museum. I wouldn't make it a destination in itself, but if you happen to be down by the CN tower/Rogers Centre it's a great place to spend an hour.

Juan Matus

(Translated) Very cute, but extremely small. The best time to visit it in the summer, since in winter the external exhibition is closed due to the cold. It has a very entertaining train simulator if you want to visit with boys. If you are going to Ripley's and CN Tower, it is opposite, you can do the walk for all three. (Original) Muy lindo, pero sumamente pequeño. El mejor momento para visitarlo en el verano, ya q en invierno la exhibición externa está cerrada por el frío. Tiene un simulador de trenes muy entretenido si se desea visitar con chicos. Si van a ir al Ripley's y al CN Tower, queda enfrente, pueden hacer el paseo por los tres.

Anthony Robinson

Very sad place. A few static locomotives and a small museum surrounded by food and booze outlets which dominate this old roundhouse.

Cool museum, the mini train looked great for the kids. Wished there was a public bathroom there.

Petre Ene

right in the downtown it is a nice way to be sent to a time much different than the busy Toronto.

Chelsea Iheme-Hall

Such a great place to explore. If you have time before / after a game or show I highly suggest taking a walk over and checking it out! They have an amazing display of trains outside too that make for the perfect family/friend/couples activity & photo opportunity.

Amazing place to visit with a toddler especially if they love trains. The museum is open today for outdoor display and they have trains like steam engines, passenger cars, and box carts etc on display. Located right next to the CN tower and Ripleys museum, they have also a mini park near by for children to play at right after. Cycling options are also available. My family drove here and we parked at toronto metro convention parking and exited through the south parking. As soon as you exit look for the stairs and you are there. So barely a two minute walk. Parking costs $5 per half hour and located at a very convenient spot. Due to covid this place is not jam packed so a lovely place to spend time with family on a nice sunny day. Would highly recommend this place.

Good trains

Yan Tremblay-Poisson

Perfect! Entering in a vintage Canadian Vickers car reminded me a lot of souvenirs, they used to operate on the AMT, for about 20 years, until approximately 2010. I really liked the railroad crossing, it was a cool and scary surprise for me, I was right behind it and the bell started ringing, I first thought it was for display only! In Exporail they have many signals but none is wired. Nice collection, I found many things at your store, the Trackside Guide is cheaper than what I paid last year in Montreal! I'll return next time I'm in the "Queen City".

Rachel Robinson

This was a random stop as we had a few hours to kill in Toronto. We had planned on going in the CN Tower, but saw this place as we were parking, and spent a few hours here. We went to the Steam Whistle Brewery next door, and signed up for a tour a few hours later, then went back outside to check it out. There was a small train going around the area giving kids and adults alike a ride. There were a few engines outside that we could climb in and learn as much or as little about. And there was picture taking galore! In the middle there's a roundabout with a caboose on it. As we were looking at it, one of the gentlemen asked if we wanted a ride. Ummm... Yes please! We convinced a few other people milling about to join us as well! It wasn't much but it was neat to see how they would get engines and cars switched around. It was very slow moving, but that could have been cuz we were all just standing on it, and they didn't want us to fall. The guy running it told us everything worked in the past too. You can go inside and see them restoring old train cars and even walk inside a few of them! When we went they were taking donations until they got it completely up and running. The trains only take up a third of this old wheel house, and it's really neat to see and hear about the history! Even if you're not a train buff, I thought it was cool and a great way to spend an hour on a nice day.

Great static and running trains and wonderful old buildings give this museum a superb atmosphere. Great exhibits and a beer garden.

It's lovely place, my son enjoyed alot. More variety of trains and Joyful ride with small train. Kids, specially who likes trains will love it.

Great place for kids or people interested in train history

When we're in the area, which includes any time we are at the Skydome, CN Tower or Ripley's Aquarium, we always cross the street to visit 'Don station' to purchase tickets for the half km ride around the park. It's fun to get our tickets punched and experience the lights flashing and gates closing to pedestrian traffic as our little caboose rides by. The ride involves straddling your seat in the open while it choo-choos for 5 minutes over open terrain. $3.50/adult, $2.50/child 12 and under. Children must be accompanied by an adult. It's thrilling for kids and fun for adults who aren't afraid to let their inner child out. Sometimes they even open some of the life-sized decommissioned train cars sitting in the park for visitors to walk through. Most of the time though, we just have to be satisfied climbing on the outside of the trains to pose for pictures as they don't have the budget to staff them. They used to have signs warning against climbing the train cars and engines, as they are quite steep and far off the ground, but people do it anyway. There's also the indoor portion of the museum tucked away that I didn't realize was there until only recently, despite the many times we've visited the park over the years! The entry fee is modest ($5/adult, reduced pricing for children) but we didn't go in so can't comment on the inside displays. Overall the train ride is a must if you're in the area and have children. It's right next to 3 major attractions, so it's not hard to do.

Sushil Damle

It's best place only for Railroad lovers. Only difference as compared to Hamburg is that here you have actual locos, good old days bogies etc. Layout is far less.

Nicolas Demers

(Translated) The exterior is worth it, several locomotives to see (and not to visit) and it's free. For example, don't waste your time indoors, invest your $ 5 elsewhere. It's very small, there are a few things about the history of the train in Canada but nothing more. (Original) L'extérieur en vaut la peine, plusieurs locomotives à voir ( et non à visiter) et c'est gratuit. Par cexemple n'allez pas perdre votre temps à l'intérieur, allez investir votre 5$ ailleurs. C'est tout petit, il y a quelques trucs sur l'histoire du train au Canada mais sans plus.

Not really worth the money to enter the museum, all of the main attractions are outside and free anyway.

Took a trip down to the Toronto Railway Museum today and had the place to myself. Open for tours inside or you can explore the grounds. First time seeing everything here and worth the trip. Great spot for kids as they would have the time of there lives. And Steam Whistle patio is open next door.

Anubin Saji

Amazing place with models and info on the emergence of rail locomotives. It also has a turning station which was used in the olden times to turn locomotives around while making a return trip

Interesting museum,especially the outside place with old locomotives.

Faith Ebersole

Most of the train cars are outside, but if you go inside stall #17 you can read, see artifacts, watch some videos and learn more. Only $5 and they take credit card. There is another building with a gift shop and a mini train ride. Takes 30min-hour. Great for any ferroquinologist. Take the skywalk from Union station to get there (follow the signs leading to CN tower/convention center as the tower and aqarium is right next to it across the street

This is a really great spot to bring the train lover (or just about any toddler). They have a little train that makes the rounds there and the museum (in the middle) is really worth a visit. Just walking about the train yard is free, the rest is pay as you go.

Nancy Panozzo

(Translated) Very beautiful to see from the outside, did not go inside. (Original) Très beau à voir de l'extérieur , ne suis pas rentrée a l'intérieur.

Aalaap Majgavkar

Interesting but not amazing. Good place to visit once because it’s very close to Ripleys and the CN Tower. The mini train is worth it if you are with kids or if you are part of a group of adults that behave like kids.

Amirreza Farhadi

Hussam Edaibis

Great railway museum

Jamal Aburrub

The mesum from the inside is very small although the simulator is pretty cool. But to charge 5$ adults and 3$ a child I think is a bit high, maybe not. The engines outside are free anyway. One idea is to charge per simulator usage, or have some more interaction.

Paul Bowen

I didnt actual get chance to go in as always seem to be shut..... Im sure next time I visit I will try again

Maxime Desmarais-Laporte

(Translated) If you read this comment, I will try to save you money. The museum looks great from the outside, but in fact, if you enter the portico where you pay when you get back, you can already see everything that has to see. The museum is very small and has very few items of interest. There is a train simulator, but play on the computer it will probably be better. $ 5 per person for this museum, a pure scam. We will sell you that you have access to the trains outside, but you do not have to pay to see them and anyway, you will not be able to get inside the wagons, it's closed for private tours. Really a very bad $ 5 invested. (Original) Si vous lisez ce commentaire, je vais essayer de vous faire sauver de l'argent. Le musé semble grand de l'extérieur, mais en fait, si vous entrez dans le portique là où vous payez en rentrant, bous pouvez déjà voir tout ce qui a à voir. Le musé est très petit et il possède très peu d'articles d'intérêt. Il y a un simulateur de train, mais jouez sur l'ordinateur ce sera sans doute mieux. 5$ par personne pour ce musé, une arnaque pur et nette. On va bous vendre que vous avez accès aux trains à l'extérieur, mais nul besoin de payer pour les voir et de toute façon, vous ne pourrez pas entrer à l'intérieur des wagons, c'est fermé pour des tours privés. Vraiment un très mauvais 5$ investie.

Christine Ferrari

The trains are great to see and it's fun for the whole family. The train ride is a decent amount of time for all ages to enjoy. We will definitely be back again once the weather gets better.

Jessica Sanderson

Neat to walk around. If you like trains it's worth a stop, especially if you're going to the CN Tower or Aquarium anyway.

(Translated) The locomotives as well as the reconstructions of tracks located outside are very interesting, it is impossible to visit them but it is possible to climb on the platforms. Regarding the interior of the museum which is managed by volunteers, some pieces are interesting, I appreciated the history of the journey of Queen Mother Elisabeth and King George 6. Activities are planned for young children. Just a small downside concerning the condition of certain windows which would need to be arranged (missing light, fallen dishes) and dusted. (Original) Les locomotives ainsi que les reconstitutions de voies situées à l'extérieur sont très intéressantes, il est impossible de les visiter mais il est possible de monter sur les plateformes. Concernant l'intérieur du musée qui est géré par des bénévoles, quelques pièces sont intéressantes, j'ai apprécié l'historique du voyage de la Reine Mère Elisabeth et du Roi Georges 6. Des animations sont prévues pour les jeunes enfants. Juste un petit bémol concernant l'état de certaines vitrines qui auraient besoin d'être arrangées (lumière manquante, vaisselle tombée) et dépoussiérées.

(Translated) The Railway Museum in Toronto, is located in front of the CN Center, the museum is located in the plaza inside one of the caravan's garages. A display of carriages and locomotives outside the museum, a free display, there is a small train for children traveling between the exhibits outside. The display in the "Museum" is poor and small and not worth going into, one small room with matte items. (Original) מוזיאון הרכבות בטורונטו, נמצא מול מקכז CN, המוזיאון נמצא ברחבה בתוך אחד המוסכים של הקרונת. תצוגה של קרונות וקטרים מחוץ למוזיאון, תצוגה חינמית, יש רכבת קטנה לילדים שנוסעת בין המוצגים שבחוץ. התצוגה ב"מוזיאון" דלה וקטנה לא שווה להיכנס, חדר אחד קטן עם מאט פריטים.

Charming volunteer-run museum. Outside portion consists of a mini steam train that you can ride, several old engines & cars (including a caboose you can go in), and a tower. Inside portion has artifacts, a Lego model train you can look at, a toy train table for little ones, and a train cab you can go in and try the controls of.

A most interesting place indeed located at the foot of the city with amazing vintage yet important rail history of transportation in the big city. The box cars and locomotive engines are most beautiful even if from the past, they show those of us how much progress has been made. If you are fortunate enough you also get to see the engineers in the workshops as they restore or service other parts of the growing display. While touring these great wonders you also have nice outdoor food and drink establishments family oriented. Absolutely worth a visit and enjoyable by all ages.

Nice place next to cn tower. Many classic station eagons,coaches,steam engine for display. Including Go train coach too. Better if posted or display more history about the railways in canada. So more kids and family can enjoy their visit. Next is Roadhouse park. If have some rides for kids, better.

This place is great if you take the toy train joy ride which can be purchased separately. Museum has good collection with a nice train simulator. However, compared to the length of stay, it's bit pricey for a family

A small yet informative transportation museum in a unique urban environment. Located across the street from CN Tower, the outdoor exhibits are freely viewable and the indoor exhibits (small entrance fee, look for stall door #17) provide just the right amount of museum for the locale.

We paid $20 to get in to find out that it was only one room with only a few old train things. Then when we asked if there was more, the person at the desk said that the other part was under CONSTRUCTION!!!!!!! That was very disappointing. We at least deserve a little heads up!! And the guy refused to give us a refund! Horrible costumer service. Do not recommend this museum!

Neat place to go to, for adults too! There are old trains outside to check out. The mini train would be fun for kids to ride. The inside part of the museum is small, so it would be a quick visit - 15-20 mins. Only 4 stars, because the inside part of the museum had limited exploring space.

(Translated) A spectacular location: what remains of the old train depot, surrounded by skyscrapers in Toronto. A nice theme park, with very well-aimed scenic reconstructions. The museum part itself is lower than expected, but ultimately the museum is a place full of charm that certainly deserves a visit on a sunny day. (Original) Una location spettacolare: quel che rimane del vecchio deposito ferroviario, circondato dai grattacieli di Toronto. Un bel parco a tema, con ricostruzioni sceniche veramente azzeccate. La parte museale vera e propria è inferiore alle aspettative, ma in definitiva il museo è un luogo ricco di fascino che merita senz'altro una visita in una giornata di sole.

Jordin Jaunzarins

Was told about here and when I looked online nowhere mentioned it was mostly seasonal. So even mid may at 25 degree weather, 90 percent was not open. No ride, no open rail cars, half museum was closed and the simulator was down. And it was still full price. None of this was mentioned before you pay either. Waste of money unless you go in June or July.... And we LOVE our trains.

Aaron Jones

Not a big place but full of interesting artifacts. Some good activites for kids. Fun simulator. The train cars are outside and don't require an admission fee to see.

The Toronto Railway Museum is a sad joke. There is only one single room to visit and the train simulator sometimes doesn't even work. Don't waste your money on nothing at all. The most interesting things to discover are actually for free since they are the trains outside the museum.

A good place to see . I was there in 2011. It is an open museum

(Translated) Bad experience. A real muggle man. The "museum" consists of a tiny room with half a dozen pieces. It costs 5 dollars to enter and is not worth it even if it was free. Don't spend your money here. The girl at the reception is very friendly but only warns you that the museum is a tiny room after collecting the entrance. (Original) Pessima experiência. Um verdadeiro pega trouxa. O "museu" consitem em uma sala minúscula com meia dúzia de peças. Custa 5 dólares pra entrar e não vale a pena nem se fosse gratuito. Não gaste seu dinheiro aqui.

We were initially impressed with being able to take our 2.5 year old son through a train car. Every toddlers dream at some point! However, the staff at the steam car really need a lesson in customer service. We arrived at the pickup point minutes too late to register "properly" for the last train ride of the day. We were able to pay the staff for our son and myself to go on, something he was incredibly excited for. There was plenty of space on the train and two separate staff members turned us away. Rules are meant to be bent a little are they not? Especially in the case of a super excited 2 year old. Try explaining that to a budding train enthusiast. Completely soured our experience.

Had a great day today. Our boys loved the minature train ride. The female with black hair and brown skin tone was very friendly she drove the train. But the skinny female with brown hair was very unwelcoming. Sour face on her. She punched the tickets at the time we went. The main thing is our boys enjoyed themselves. And for the first time ever they finally posed in front of every old train for a photo!

We stopped by this attraction because it's right across the Aquarium and the CN tower that we were going. Nothing special but it's free (at least the outside portion) and it was cool to walk around and explain to our son how the roundhouse worked. A must if you are a train enthusiast.

Excellent use of the old roundhouse. Reasonable admission rates albeit limited opening hours. Adds historical flavour to an otherwise sterile part of downtown. Like the fact that the outdoor part of the museum is free for people to roam around in and see locos and coaches up close. If you're lucky enough like today for me, they fired up an old loco and got it onto the roundhouse, like a kid in a candy store, great to see!

It’s a fantastic place. Although I didn’t have the time to enter the museum, I spent some time at the yard which had some engines from the bygone era stationed. Each has some kind of history to it and an informative signboard gives all the details. It’s a good place for kids and families to spend some time.

Hermione Benson

Loved this place so much!! We happened upon this museum completely by accident and it felt like serendipity as we both really love trains. It's a free exhibit/museum with a bunch of trains on display and a small little gift shop. The whole experience was lovely. There were little plaques that gave you some history - but not an overwhelming amount. It felt very manageable and the fact that it was free was of course a great bonus. We had no idea this was here, and it was such a pleasant surprise! Would definitely return if we were in the area again. I appreciate that in a city where space is at a premium, they have dedicated this amount of space to their history/roots. A+++

The museum is small, I'm not sure if the other half is just workshop or in construction. One of the real train display is in maintenance as well....When you walk inside you see this huge train that is there and we thought we can go up there however it's in a restricted area. They should have inform people half of it is not accessible before asking people to pay $5 each. Im glad the kids are not old enough so we didn't have to pay more. Better spend the admission for the mini train ride outside then the "museum" itself.

Michele Lambardi

I saw this place by chance while looking for a good observation point for CN Tower without the skyscrapers hiding it. Essentially here you can see a dozen locomotives and train wagons that are cool to see and touch and take photos at. If you're into trains and you are either alone or with consensual adults then you might have a look at it while moving between the waterfront and the CN tower-acquarium complex. You can also pay no more than 5$ to see the interior of the museum, but you shall not think that the most is in it: in the whole roundhouse, just one stall (one garage) hosts the museum's indoors collection, which doesn't really take much to see. Just to avoid the "entering and feeling guilty for not looking interested and then buying a ticket" situation. The most to see is in the outside, but the ticket is cheap and contributes keeping the museum alive. Ah, beware the seagulls on the back of the roundhouse. I saw a little girl far from me and alone being followed and getting annoyed by them.. those beasts are daring!

I thought it was great! It was really cool seeing all the old train cars and stuff. I went with my dad who's been a conductor for CN Rail for 30 years. He explained what everything was, and inside showed me basically his job on the train simulator. So many different artifacts. I got a couple things from the gift shop. Definitely worth the $5 to go inside. Loved it!

Is nice. Right now is under construction. Make it look like the $5 is to much but actually isn't. I guess the fee includes the outside part. So actually is a good price. I didn't take the small train ride but is cheap. I wish one day the trains can be access the inside too. I wouldn't mind paying more if that's the case.

The roundhouse is amazing to see from outside. I didn't find anything valuable in the museum unfortunately--its super small. Staff were very nice though. A bit sad to see that the roundhouse was mostly converted to restaurants and bars as it has a lot of history and could have been a mega museum.

I really enjoyed the museum and the outdoor displays of the trains and was well worth it. I know there was a lot of negative reviews about the indoor presentation being too small but when does anyone have the opportunity to see the trains up close in person and go inside them , that alone is worth the admission. Highly recommend this exhibit.

A friend and I checked out the museum this past Saturday, during the 90th anniversary celebrations of the roundhouse. They have vintage engines, cabooses, and passenger cars, some of which you can explore. I was very impressed with the old single-level GO Transit car, which was usual on their system until the bi-level cars that we see today arrived back in 1978. The old Don station is on the site. It's the boarding point for the miniature train ride, and part of it also serves as a very well-stocked gift shop! The museum itself in stalls 15 and 17 have many artifacts, as well as a passenger car and a train simulator where you can play the role of engineer! There's also a video which outlines the history of the museum and how it came to be. We paid special rates as this was a special event, but $5 is more than reasonable as a fee at all other times. I'll definitely come back!

Ricardo Mierz

Looking at their site on line you would figure that the old train roundhouse would be the whole train museum but thats not the case.. This so called museum is ony 2 stalls out of 30 or so that houses the train museum the rest is a brewery, and some sort of up in coming rave nightclub? that is expanding westward with new constuction, and both are encroaching on the doorsteps of this place and pritty soon this museum will be squeezed out like a pimple.. ALL the exibits are stored outside including the restored equipmen and is showing a lot of deterioration that is slowly taking hold of the colection, the Northern steam engine that used to be store at the CNE for 50 years has had its cab numbers painted over in glossy black?... Maybe they should just paint it like the rainbow flag... This place has no direction and is run by a bunch of airhead girls that smile at you if you ask them a question about the museum, but if you would ask them about perfumes, handbags, shoes or the best place to buy them they would immediately tell you everything on that subject... Every exibit is closed outside and some are completly fenced off, but they want you to pay admission to see a room full of junk and stand in line forever to try the train simulator... This is a failing venture, I'd give it 3 more years, so you better see it before it all ends up in the scrap yard wich would be a terible thing to do but money is money and it talks... Toronto wants to be a world class city and has chosen New York for its model, so all we need now is for vandals to vandalise everything there and make it worthless like in New York, Its just a matter of time before we live up to our new New York image.. What ever happend to our old unique Toronto when everyone was happy before and life was great and we could see the lake.

Chris H.

You can see all the rolling stock for free. It's just one very small room inside - that is not worth the 5$ admission, but I'll count it as a donation.

eksyau1

a great place to visit. many old train displays for free. not worth to spend 5 dollars to see small workshop. finding a car park is a nightmare.

Michael Izzo

Four stars because the price is low and the kids loved the simulator... but be aware the inside portion you pay for is very small. I was expecting at least a train or two to be inside the roundhouse and that is not the case. There is a train cab simulator which was neat but overall a bit disappointing for adults. Checking out the outdoor area is sufficient.

Complete ripoff. $5 gets you into an about 10x10 'exhibit' of pictures. Period. Could it be temporary? I dont know but after paying $5 i dont really care. I have more train pictures in my garage. Maybe i should open it as a 'museum'. Shame on you folks.

Jo Sydes

Worth visiting the outside which is free but $5 to enter the tiny museum was really not worth it! Took us 5 minutes to look inside.

Brooke G

Very disappointed. Paid $5 each for absolutely nothing. The 'exhibit' inside was small and did not remotely warrant the price of admission. The train cars outside were closed. I understand that they are in the process of making new displays, but I would have appreciated a discounted price.

Syed Kamran Bashir

Nice to see the railway heritage of canada

Anne G Picard

The train ride is the thing to do especially for 3-7 year olds. Unfortunately, the actual museum is not worth going to if you have smaller children as the activities geared to them do not work properly (electric Thomas the Train set) or are broken (regular track/train table). I agree that many of the staff were not to friendly for a Tourist attraction.

$5 admission ($3 for Little Man) to go inside stall 17. Worth every penny. 17 - Historical pieces, maps, videos, old tools, dishes, uniforms, and more amazing artifact items to check out. Little Man loved the simulator. We both liked learning about The Canadian and the history of rail in Canada. Outside (free) - Check out Cabin D to learn about (and try) the track switches. Learn about what went on inside a Caboose. Climb aboard the new GO train car. Don Station has the Gift Shop and is worth a visit inside even if you're not in the shopping mood. All of the other trains cars can be seen from the outside even when the museum is closed. Watching the turntable rotate was pretty amazing! Wish I took more pictures. I swear I saw Wilson from Chuggington.

It was great to see some of these old historical trains after our visit to the CN Tower & Ripley’s Aquarium. This museum was just right next to all those sightseeing places. They had a nice presentation outdoor. If you have time and like to find out more about the railway, I think the indoor museum has a lot more to see.

Ariel Waltz

(Translated) I went there because the reviews were so good, just a few old locomotives, some vans, and a little history. It's not bad to visit, and it's not bad to go to the nearby CN Tower or aquarium. I went to the CN Tower and watched it on the way to Harbourfront. In the middle point.

Was downtown T.O. and thought it would be nice to check it out. Google said it was open, we got there and saw a sign owned by Toronto train muesem also saying it was open, go to number 17. Get to number 17 and doors are closed... There were also grandparents with their grandchild who took the Go train all the way from Whitby hoping to go inside as it was his birthday and he wanted to visit the train museum. But of course this being such a world class city its closed even though everything else says its open. Moving here from a small town it is clear by calling it a world class city it is a sarcastic joke as it is anything but that. Scary its biggest city in Canada and probably has most tourists but seems everything here is run by clowns. Easily worst city in Canada and I truly pitty anyone who comes here, just a complete stink hole

The museum itself is quite small, but it has some interesting content. There is a train simulator, with real controls, and some exhibits on the history and function of trains. Outside the Roundhouse are many trains and passenger cars, some of which you can enter on guided tours. Finally, my favorite part was the miniature railway for kids, which goes on fully functional mini train tracks.

Most you can see there is outside - old locomotives etc.. Do not go inside of the "museum", they want 5 dollars inside and there is literally nothing - 1 room like 5x8m and only some old pictures... If it would be free, ok but 5 dollars for this is almost a scam.

The Toronto Railway Museum does an excellent job showcasing the very exciting history of Toronto and Canada's railway history. The Museum is located in the historic John St. Roundhouse. The Roundhouse was the former Toronto repair facility for the Canadian Pacific Railway. The majority of the museum is outside but I also highly recommend going to check out the inside portion of the museum. The inside portion is not large by any means but they do their best to ensure that each inch of the space is filled with some sort of exibit. I especially recommend this museum for any railway buff or anyone who will be taking the train across Canada. I had the great opertunity to perform at the grand opening of the museum in 2010 and closely watched the evolution of the museum since about 2006. Since he museum opened they have continued to expand and create many new exhibits that continue to turn the museum into a must-see attraction in Toronto.
