Wilmington Railroad Museum, North Carolina

We found our first train museum for our train-loving boys. It is a small museum so they can't get too far if they run away. It started raining like crazy shortly after getting there so it was a good thing we weren't out at the beach! It had been raining for a couple days before so everything was pretty saturated. A real life-size caboose, boxcar, and 100-year-old steam locomotive. The museum showcases the history on the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad. Most interesting to the boys was an enormous scale layout with lots of buttons to push and play area to set up their own tracks.
