What to expect
The first part of this tour is dedicated to history. It is a pre-history of sorts, too, because we delve back to the beginnings of the museum, exploring its fascinating origins and the very reason for its establishment. It is all done with some serious style, too, because what else could one expect from the museum that swiftly established itself as any train lover's dream destination? The next part transports visitors back in time, with an exclusive ride on a rare vintage train, Maestro. If you had not heard of this train before, you are not alone. However, you are about to learn all about it and the next thrilling component that is part of this upscale tour experience: the opportunity to "drive" a train.
