Chattanooga and Knoxville were strategic points on the railroad system during the Civil War and this museum preserves some of those lines and has an amazing stable of historic trains to ride on and explore. There are a variety of seasonal specials, promotions and events, please visit them at www.tvrail.com for schedules and pricing. The experience of riding the train, watching the engine spin around for the return journey and seeing the historic collection of cars and engines is thrilling for even the biggest kid! Traveling with children can be daunting, exhausting and frustrating. It can also be relaxing, enjoyable and create lasting memories of bonding moments. We always recommend that you talk to your children about some of the options for your family adventures. Consider that sometimes a few days in town doing things that you wouldn’t ordinarily do together combined with an overnight or weekend adventure can make for a very affordable experience.
