Epic Rail Train…read moremuseum located in Bowling Green, KY at the historic (1925) L&N Depot. We were looking for something to check out while we visited Bowling Green, and trains are always a good idea. The Good: *Admission is $16 ($14 seniors and vets) for the museum and tour or $8 for just the museum. *Some nice displays in the museum of historic rail antiquities. *Friendly staff *Touring the rail cars is always fascinating, and they've done a great job refurbishing and keeping them in good shape. The Meh: *Smallish souvenir shop to pick up a few gifts and/or souvenirs for train lovers. The Ugly: *Touring the rail car in the summer is just a downright awful experience. I mean, they try their best to cool off the trains with AC, but it's like spitting into the wind. I was schvitzing more than a turkey in November. TLDR: Not the best train museum I've ever visited--and I've visited a LOT--but it was a good way to kill a few hours and didn't break the bank.

The building itself and the inside lobby walls are the best thing about this place. Way overpriced…read morefor what you get to see.

The National Corvette Museum is an awesome automobile museum with something for everyone! Whether…read moreyou're a gear head, friend of classic cars, or just an admirer of Chevrolet's flagship automobile, there's something for everyone here. There is handicap parking up front and when you walk into the entrance, there are already several Corvette's on display. Some of them are actually being raffled off and tickets for the raffles can be purchased at the museum. The entrance area also has two race car simulators where you can safely experience the thrill of driving a race car Corvette. There are senior discounts and military discounts (veterans and active duty) available so make sure you inform them prior to purchasing your tickets. Inside the museum is a journey through the past to the evolution of the Corvette! There are many classic Corvettes, Corvettes that were race cars, prototype Corvettes, and even celebrity owned Corvettes! There's a lot of history in this museum and they even talk about a sinkhole event that happened at the museum in 2014 and steps taken to recover the beloved cars! Some cars amazingly came out in great condition, but others suffered irreparable damage! This museum is just a real celebration of one of America's most beloved sports cars! Take a look, take photos, but go visit if you have a chance! There are guided tours we were told, but many people choose to just self tour the museum on their own! You even get a wristband, so if you don't complete the museum tour in the morning, you can come back in the afternoon and complete your tour. Overall, it's a very fun, interactive, and enjoyable experience and I would highly recommend!!

It's a place that I've driven by numerous times but probably never would have visited. We chose to do the guided tour ($10 extra) and Barbara was an excellent guide. It was interesting to learn about the cars and the history of the brand. The sinkhole viewing was a bit creepy. I was curious about how often the cars were detailed to keep them so shiny. Apparently, they are all on a maintenance schedule. We did get to see a customer do a museum pick up and that was pretty cool. We had lunch at the Stingray Grill as well, which had standard lunch offerings. Overall, this turned out to be a fun day and the entombed Corvette remains my favorite story.

The story and history behind this place is amazing and I love to see how well kept everything is, here. Highly recommend giving yourself a couple of hours to explore because there is so much to see! They close at 5pm and we arrived around 4:30pm, so not enough time to explore the museum, maybe next time. We were able to take several photos of the arboretum and let me tell you, you cannot take a bad picture here - everything is stellar!

She was an incredible wealth of knowledge and personally stepped outside to show us the direction of our self guided tour. The cost was $15.00 per adult. The preservation of this site is an absolute labor of love. Unfortunately, only 9 of the buildings survived out of 225 buildings. The rest of the buildings were devastated by a previous owner. However, this organization was very classy in maintaining a balance of history while not degrading the poor choices made by this individual. ( You will see what I mean.) Just a note: this is not a tour that is handicapped accessible. There are a lot of stairs and quite a distance to cover to the cemetery.
