This is an eclectic museum of railroad paraphanalia, as well as a significant number of full-scale…read morepieces of rolling stock in the adjacent rail yard. Run by "Watermelon" Campbell and his delightful wife, Edna, the collection is the result of a lifetime dedication by a knowledgeable railroad man. Watermelon served as a conductor in a career of more than 40 years; he has put together an assemblage of dining car china, a collection of switch locks, lanterns, railroad signage, photographs, railroad scrip from the 19th century, railroad matchbooks, playing card sets, ticket punches, and hundreds of other items that tell the promotional story of working railroads. The museum also includes extensive N-scale and HO-scale working layouts. 11 cabooses are part of the rolling stock collection and can be walked through and experienced. The Frisco Mountain-type 1519 locomotive is also part of the collection (once on display in an Enid park) and the cab can be visited using a (somewhat steep) ramp. Young children will not enjoy this museum as much as adults and railroad enthusiasts, though the ability to explore real-world trains may appeal to some younger folks. Go to this museum soon, as Watermelon turns 97 on Memorial Day 2019 and his stories are a significant part of the visit. The $5 suggested donation is a trifle for the things you will learn here.

We didn't get a chance to see the schoolhouse and outbuildings this time because there wasn't an available guide (apparently required). I was with two of my kids and it's not super kid-friendly but has a nice gift shop for them. I will definitely go back when I'm not having to watch the kids so much.
