The railroad itself is amazing. Even those who know little about trains will be impressed, as there is so much more than trains; it is the whole world around the trains as well, reduced to 1/87th real size. Bits of actual railroad history scattered all around the perimeter with posted descriptions and explanations. The location of the museum is nice. Easy parking and plenty of real railroading right outside the door to the models. Entertaining for all ages.

Definitely an unexpected find in Cheyenne, this smaller private museum holds a unique collection of…read moreCheyenne and Wyoming artifacts. Very much worth the $5 entrance fee, I enjoyed the 90 minutes I spent here and would give it a firm recommendation. A number of hunting trophies from smaller to large sized, which definitely is not my thing. I was able to look past those and see the more human-made artifacts. Military uniforms and other clothing for enlisted and officers through several different conflicts. A huge collection of firearms, including some classic pistols and some amazingly well maintained rifles. A collection of law enforcement items including badges, guns and handcuffs.

They have a good size Kid Zone. Then they have the history of Fort Collins. Then, I believe, they have a rotating exhibit. At the time was all about Skin. On humans and animals. It was fascinating.

There is so much to do and explore here! The music section is definitely a favorite as you get to test out so many instruments! Everything was well maintained (minus one or two exhibits that weren't functioning at the time). The toddler area is great for the little ones to be separate. Personally, I was absolutely stoked for the shadow wall - it's just a fun/silly thing to do. When we ventured upstairs we didn't realize there was a theater until a staff member asked if we were there to see the show. Since we had to get going, I asked if I could peak in real quick to check it out and he was totally fine with it. It looks so cool! We will definitely be back to catch a show in the future.

We stopped in on a cold Saturday afternoon an hour and a half before close, but the lady at the desk had already checked out, at least mentally. We obviously interrupted her work on the computer to pay for our admission, which was reasonably priced BTW. No 'have you visited before?' 'These are our exhibits.' 'Here's a map, it's self-guided.' Was this place a bank? Who knows? Is there a sign that tells me? Maybe, if I can find it? This place is small, but very clean. From what I can tell, there are 3 exhibits: Greeley general history, Nordic (connection to Greeley?), and a small exhibit on immigration. There's also a few items downstairs-if there's more, I'll never know. Would've been nice to have a little extra guidance upon our entering, but c'est la vie. Will we be back? Probably not. As much as I like to support museums, this one is lacking. Visit Centennial Village if you're looking for more history of the area.

They have great toy train displays upstairs and they cover train history very well. I made the three hour round trip from Denver and was mildly disappointed there was not more to see.
