Strasburg Tomorrow!
Posted by Anonymous on Friday, April 30, 2004 8:30 AM
Hi there,
My 5-year-old and I are making the pilgrimage to Strasburg, PA. What are the must-see toy train stops/shops in the area? We've done the "Day Out With Thomas" thing there a couple of times, but he was too small for the museum. Now he's really fired up to see a PRR B1 switcher in the flesh.... Thanks for any advice!

Right around the corner is the Nation Toy Train Museum. It about 5 minutes down the road right beside the red caboose motel.
