The Children's Hall lets children express themselves while surrounded by the history of railroading in Wilmington

Our youngest visitors love the Children's Hall, where imaginations have free rein on the play tables in lively surroundings.  A large-scale layout backs up the play area, providing lots of action and operating accessories. 

 


Children's films run continuously while kids get to build their own railroad empires.  Push-button operation on the layout lets kids start up the trains for their own imaginary travels.

 
The miniature caboose provides a space for pillow play, as well as a place for photos.
