Route 66 Museum

Visited the Arizona Route 66 museum/visitor center in Kingman on our way to The Town of Oatman, AZ…read more The visitor center is on the 1st floor and offers a nice size gift shop with so many cool souvenirs. They also have nice clean bathrooms. The 2nd floor is the entrance to the Museum. The Museum was very informative about the history of Route 66 and Kingman. We also got to tour the electric vehicle museum. Admission was only $10 for adults. Unfortunately the day we went The Bonelli house was not open which is included in that price. It's a self tour and they also have an hour long movie about Route 66 and the boom and bust that happened. After visiting the shop and touring the museum we had a little picnic lunch outside before continuing our road trip. They had some clean picnic tables under an awning with some shade so we were able to enjoy our lunch outside instead of in our car which was nice! Great place to stop and take a break while visiting Arizona.

From trade route, to train route, to State Route 66 [Kingman AZ]…read more The Arizona Route 66 Museum is located on the 2nd floor of the Powerhouse. As we were leaving we didn't immediately notice that the museum was just above the Visitor Center. We went back inside LoL! General admission is $10/person but if you're a senior (60+) it's $6. The ticket can be used as a bookmark to remember your visit to Kingman AZ. The $10 ticket is good to see 3 places: The Mojave Museum (unfortunately was closed at the time), 'The Powerhouse' Route 66 Museum including the Historic Electric Vehicle Exhibit and The Bonelli House. Arizona Route 66 Museum ~ To summarize, the museum depicts the historical evolution of travel along the 35th parallel that became Route 66. We viewed vintage artifacts, dioramas, murals, photographs, and more that took us on a journey from a pre-Route 66 America to the present and, well, everything in between. Informative museum! Route 66 Electric Vehicle Museum ~ Why is there a Tesla in here?? Well, I did not know that they made Tesla's then. There is a 2008 Tesla Roadster "The Simo" on the exhibit floor. Elon Musk launched a Roadster into space carried by a Falcon Heavy rocket in a test flight on February 6, 2018. Route 66 Drive-Thru Shield ~ We drove through this roadside attraction that allowed cars to drive a loop and go under and through the classic Route 66 shield. Pretty cool! Review #3696

The Heart of Historic Route 66! [Kingman AZ]…read more Kingman has that authentic small-town vibe that is packed with history. Not in any particular order but we stopped at the following places: * Locomotive Park - hop aboard a steam engine and a caboose! This is home to famed Steam Engine #3759 and Caboose 999520. Historic and huge! * Kingman Visitor Center - The folks at the visitor center are friendly and can provide all kinds of helpful information so you can better know what to do and what to see while you're in town * Arizona Route 66 Museum - A single ticket gave us access to the Route 66 Museum; the Mohave Museum; and the Bonelli House, a restored house from 1915. Unfortunately the Mohave Museum was closed at the time and we didn't make it to the Bonelli House. Kingman felt both the boom and bust of being on Route 66, and this history is chronicled at the Arizona Route 66 Museum. It featured the historical evolution of travel along Route 66 with vintage artifacts, dioramas, murals, and photographs, etc. * Historic Electric Vehicle Exhibit - this is a bonus and is included in the "one fee for all three" program for its most popular museums. The exhibit is located upstairs inside the Arizona Route 66 Museum. * Route 66 Drive-thru sign - this is a giant version of the famous Route 66 road sign where cars can line up in a loop and drive through and stop under the sign to take pics. Very cool! * Giganticus Headicus - Can't miss this giant green 14-foot-tall Tiki head situated on Historical Route 66, just 20 miles north of Kingman We had an early dinner at Thai 66. Small and unassuming restaurant with delicious food (separate review). In conclusion, whether you are a history buff, nature lover, or adventure seeker, this city has something for everyone... Get Your Kicks on Route 66! Review #3698

Route 66 Sculpture [Kingman AZ]…read more Driving along on Route 66 on our way to Seligman there was an unexpected roadside attraction. Actually, we didn't happen upon this sculpture we actually bookmarked this place to see it. We were on a mission to find all these kitschy, quirky attractions along Route 66 that we could. The building next to Giganticus Headicus operates as a Route 66 gift shop, unfortunately, the Antares Point Visitor Center|Gift Shop was closed for the season when we stopped by. Yup, this larger than life quirky attraction is a 14-foot tall big green head and was created in 2004 by a local artist... it actually looks like part Tiki and part Easter Island Moai. Since the gift shop was closed we took our photos and quickly moved on. If you're traveling Route 66 through Arizona, don't forget to HEAD on over to Kingman to check out Giganticus Headicus. Get your kicks on Route 66. Review #3692

I met #3759 and 999520! [Kingman AZ]…read more Just like my hometown where a large piece of Roseville's history is the railroad. We have the major Southern Pacific rail yard, a major West Coast rail center as part of Roseville's railroad heritage,... Kingman was founded in 1882 as a small railroad town during the construction of the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad and in 1883 Kingman was established as a railroad stop. Locomotive Park is not very big, you can see the "Welcome to Kingman" archway from the park. There is ample parking spaces for visitors. This is home to famed Steam Engine #3759. Visitors can climb aboard the train but use caution. It was retired in 1953, having traveled over 2,585,600 miles. The marker at the park was an interesting read. When #3759 was retired and given to the town of Kingman Santa Fe section crews laid a temporary rail line across Route 66 to the park. As soon as the engine was across the street, the track was torn up. It was the shortest-lived railroad line that the Santa Fe had ever built, lasting for about 45 minutes. It was then it had its official dedication "old 3759." In 1987 caboose 999520 was retired and donated to Kingman to be added to the #3759 display. In its operational life, it was used in mainline transcontinental pool caboose services. Visitors can also climb aboard the front and the back end of the caboose. A community project called "The Great Locomotive Pull" was organized and drew a crowd of 4,000 where some 1,200 of them took rope in hand to move the nearly half-million pound iron creature 30 feet forward to its new resting spot. Wow! instead of just bringing in a heavy equipment and move the locomotive they got the whole town involved. Amazing! It took "10 seconds." Near the west end of Locomotive Parks is the Beale Monument on which is inscribed the story of Lt. Edward Beale. The Visitors Center is just right across the street at the old Powerhouse.
