Our new Christmas-themed platform is under construction

The AACA Museum, Inc., America’s Transportation Experience, invites train lovers and motoring enthusiasts — young and old — to join us in celebrating “Christmas in July” in our Train Room on July 22nd and 23rd.

With the sun shining and Santa on hiatus, the museum’s holiday-themed model train collection will be rumbling along the tracks. There’s no need to wait until December to enjoy our festive Train Room and holiday-themed model locomotives, including the “Polar Express.”

Winter themes and summer fun

Our Christmas-themed platform expands our Christmas in July experience, and visitors can participate in our special Christmas in July scavenger hunt. Complete the hunt and receive a discount in the museum gift shop.

Thank you, volunteers

We genuinely appreciate Wayne Manson and all of the model train exhibit volunteers. Wayne donated Christmas trains and numerous additions to our display. Among them are a Mickey Mouse & Friends” train; a Christmas Imperial Diesel engine and caboose along with snowmen & trees; a Lionel Winter Wonderland Express; and a Christmas Light Express five-piece set.

Each week our volunteers keep the trains rolling and maintain our extensive track featuring tunnels, bridges, trestles, and all of the small-scale buildings to create a miniature world from bygone days.
