Toronto Train Museum

Very close to the CN tower is the Railroad History Museum, which is housed in the old Roundhouse where they would repair and refuel steam engines between their journeys.

They have a bunch of cars outside you can see and one very old car inside the museum that you can walk into. They have a bunch of other stuff, mostly designed to appeal to kids.

They even have a simulator where you can control the throttle and brakes and see in a video screen what the engineer would view. I'm proud to say I managed to start and drive the train and bring it safely to a stop at the platform.Read more
