Train rides and fun for the whole family! The Minnesota Transportation Museum's (MTM) Jackson Street Roundhouse is open year-round. Housing the museum's classic collection of railroad rolling stock, memorabilia, and exhibits, the roundhouse is also the base of the museum's railroad restorations.
See the "Casey Jones" steam locomotive undergo restoration. Plus, watch one of the nation's last surviving operational turntables. The roundhouse is open year round for visitors and groups of any size. Experience the Twin Cities only interactive railroad facility that's been in continuous operation for over 100 years.
Today, it houses a fully interactive train museum featuring restored railcars to explore, locomotives, operating signals, a working blacksmith shop, model trains and a children's play area. Take a REAL 15-minute ride on a 100-year-old caboose on Saturdays!
