Fantastic! But I must qualify rating…read more Let me begin by saying I enjoyed my visit to the museum. They have a wonderful collection of several different types of trains (steam, electric, diesel) and an excellent collection of streetcars. You can ride a train and a street car; they have one of each running on different tracks. AND the prices of their food at the Central Diner won't break the bank. I thought the museum was very alive, in the sense that there seems to be a huge staff working on and operating the trains. It felt like a less hectic train yard. Would I recommend visiting the museum ... I hesitate. If you truly enjoy trains, it's an easy yes. If you don't, well, I hesitate to recommend it, even though I really would like you to go visit it. I have only visited a couple railway museums: B&O Railroad Museum in Baltimore and the National Railroad Museum in Green Bay. I had a wonderful time at both of these museums, and it is difficult for me to quite put my finger on why I had less fun at the Illinois Railway Museum. I think one of the reasons is that you are always at ground level looking up. You don't get to get in or even have the opportunity for an elevated view of any of the trains, nor do you get to go in the cab of any of them. Because of that, I think I felt less connected to the trains, as so much of them was unseen. The streetcars are low enough that it isn't such a problem. But it would have been wonderful to have a few street cars available to go through.

You can also take a ride on an electric car that used to go from Chicago to the suburbs. The staff are amazing and will help you find anything that you need. One of the employees even opened the used bookstore to help us find an item. he really went above and beyond to help us in our search for a particular item. The only downside is that several of the attractions had different hours and were closed. Also, we found it difficult to find particular locomotives or cars we were looking for. They can definitely make signage a little better and clearer. Other than that, it is a great place to visit.

We didn't go through the historical village part, but we did check out the dollhouse museum (apparently the collection of one person, but there wasn't really any information about them in the building and no one manning this space). The gift shop is small but well appointed (they need a penny smasher, though!) People can also rent spaces/venues here; there were two weddings happening here the day we were there! A nice smaller local history museum.

So, apparently, a good deal, 100 tokens for $20. So, we split the tokens 50/50.

The number of machines that required 4 tokens seemed to be in the majority. Most places we have been to, the higher token machines were typically the race car driving machines, where machines that give tickets typically range in the 1-2 token family group. Now, I saw that someone mentioned that the arcade accepted 1-4 tokens, I did not find (on 4/25/2025 any that accepted only 1 token. Not saying that they were not there... I just did not find them. I did find a few that accepted 2 tokens or 3 tokens though. They do have some sort of bowling game that required 8 tokens in the back corner. While we were there yesterday, on a Saturday afternoon, it was really quite empty, we did not see anyone working the concession area at all. Thankfully, we brought water bottles.

This place is fantastic. The name is deceiving as there is way more history than "cars". Yes there are cars but each is surrounded by its history, the story and place in history of each car. American history, movies and Presidents take center stage with sprinkles of space and unusual American stories. If you are a JFK enthusiast this is a great place to immerse in details only seen in Dallas at the Seventh floor museum. And ask Tony for a tour! He is the resident historian, he has assisted in curating the exhibits, tracking down the history, authenticating each artifact and creating the story and context for you to enjoy. For movie nuts there is the Back to the future car, Ghostbuster hearse and a couple Batman movie and TV batmobiles! Marilyn Monroe, James Dean and Elvis also have exhibits. All in all a great experience, and did I mention ask Tony for a tour. He will take you to the exhibits you are most interested in and focus on that specific area. Have fun!! read more

I finally have returned to this wonderful treasure of a museum. I brought my cousins and I had to see the new exhibits since my last visit in 2015. Tony Farrell, Sr is an absolute essential because he researches everything in the museum and I've never known that certain pieces have a secret history behind them. I totally recommend booking a tour with Tony for a day trip, school outing, or maybe a park district trip for all ages. I've heard of the infamous Marilyn Monroe and JFK's birthday but I've never seen the cake top itself which makes a huge statement to the story. Hurry though, right now they're open until Labor weekend Sept 4th, 2022. I think this museum needs to be on a program for everyone to take in the sights like on the Travel Channel. I did find a half off coupon online for an adult with a child admission. Good Hunting and stop by for a visit with Tony. read more

My wife and I discovered Historic Auto Attractions three years ago shortly after we moved to Rockton, Illinois. We were taken aback at the sheer variety of the historic artifacts on display. Many have transportation involvement and many do not. A year ago now they closed down for over 8 months to double in size and re-organize the displays making room for many new acquisitions. As I understand it there are now over 87,000 square feet of display area. Undoubtedly everyone that visits this place will find many things of interest to ponder. The life sized diorama of "The Last Supper" finds people of faith sitting in pews taking it all in. The 9/11 memorial is particularly moving. Historic Auto Attractions is our favorite museum. It is worth the travel effort to spend a few hours here. Don't miss it! read more

A very fascinating museum that doesn't get the attention it deserves. It is advertised as an Historic Auto Museum, but it has infinitely more to offer. It encompasses a wide range of subjects from ancient Egypt to the dawn of the space race. Everything is well presented and has been meticulously authenticated. Of particular interest are presentations of unique material related to the tragic events at Ford's Theater and Dealey Plaza respectively. If you plan a visit, especially with a group, I would recommend requesting a tour from Tony. He is extremely knowledgeable and eager to share his enthusiasm for any and all items displayed. A must see in northern Illinois. read more

I plan to come back very soon because there is so much to see. Private tours are free and you just call ahead and Tony will show you around. It is worth it because he is a wealth of knowledge and will provide details that you may have missed just walking through on your own. We will certainly be back many times!

Very underrated museum!!! This place deserves to be $50 a person and in downtown Chicago! There is so much history here in the form of cars which for a car guy like myself is spectacular. If you have not been here you're missing out as it is not expensive and is very much worth it. They have the actual flag that was over the coffin of JFK, or they did when I went, and I thought that was amazing for a place like Roscoe. 10/10 would go many times over and over again. read more

It's back! And the same friend from last year and I went again yesterday…read more This really is the mother lode of antiques, and many items are priced to move. Our best deals: I found dollhouse miniatures for $1 each (miniatures are usually $$$) and a huge lantern for $3; my friend got a glass domed cake stand for $4. We also found hard to find stuff: she was able to get a Peanuts Belle figure (it's almost impossible to find her!) Plus a bunch of other fun things including a 1930s luggage tag, a jadeite hand for storing rings/jewelry, vintage cooking pamphlets put out by different brands, and more. Again we were there half the day and walked about 4 miles. Accessibility notes: normally I use a cane but this time I used my rollater (rolling walker with seat), which was a good decision because I could sit down when needed, particularly while waiting on long lines at the food trucks. Almost every booth was set up so I could get in/out (only one or two were too crowded), and the bathroom we used was big enough to get into as well. The least accessible space was the dining area in the large white building toward the back of the fairgrounds. The outdoor space is bumpy with dirt, grass and or gravel in various spots so having the rollater instead of just my cane added stability (I saw other people with electric scooters and some with manual wheelchairs, but you might need someone to push you through the gravel, because even pushing the rollater through it was difficult). There are a number of food options; we got cinnamon roasted nuts, maple cinnamon rolls from Hough Maple Lane Farm, and a pulled pork sandwich from Whiskey Hotel BBQ/Beef's BBQ Pit. Tried to eat again at Beef on the Moove like last year, but the line was not moving so I gave up after standing there about 5 minutes; likewise, the girl taking orders at the BBQ truck just did not seem to have a sense of urgency despite the huge line. We did wish that all the arts and crafts people and MLMs were in one area or building, because if you don't have an interest in that stuff you can skip it if you want to. Overall, worth going to if you're into antiques and vintage and looking for deals!
