This area also houses the gift shop and the first few exhibits that include various historical items and paintings. Don't judge the museum based on this part. The museum is spread across two floors and is handicap accessible. The first floor has exhibits about Indian tribes, sawmills, local life including time period recreations of parlors, bed rooms, and school rooms. A lot of effort was put into these exhibits, and include hands on activities for children including one that involves dress up. This museum also stands out as it has many actual artifacts from the period on display. Towards the back of the first floor are exhibits about Lycoming Counties participation in various wars, the area's fire fighters including antique equipment, and a whole room discussing the county in the 20th Century. There is also a full-size general store, information about the area's canals, and the history of various towns names. This floor alone is more than most museums offer. The bottom floor houses two rooms: The Shempp Model Train Collection and the Hall of Farming, Crafts, and Industry. The Industry Hall has various exhibits discussing wood working, milling, blacksmithing, and Lycoming engines to name a few. These are also well presented, with large exhibits including an blacksmiths shop and two Lycoming engines. The Shempp Model Train Collection could be the most impressive display in the whole museum. A HUGE collection spanning all different eras and gauges, including many rare models. Two large train displays can also be started by button, with other buttons controlling features in the scenes such as gates. Coming here for the trains alone is worth it. Overall, I can't recommend a visit to the Taber Museum enough. It's very well executed with interesting exhibits at a reasonable price. This could be one of the best museums that's a hidden gem in Pennsylvania.

After looking at the website and asking other yelpers for info I decided to go on a trip to…read morewilliamsport. Looked on Yelp and then google maps to get basic info, then check the county tourism website for specific info. as it turns out the Lycoming County Historical Society & Taber Museum are in the same building. Admission was 5.00/pp or 4.00 with AAA discount. It was a large building with different exhibits that explained all about life in the area, from prehistory to modern times. There was info from native american times, the revolutionary war, civil war, lumber era and modern times. There were literally hundreds if not thousands of artifacts and objects from the past. It was a self guided tour that was fairly interesting (to me.) We spent about an hour or so there, checking everything out, reading plaques, looking at paintings (both local and national) and taking pictures. There were several other families visiting the same day. There is also a very large train section in the downstairs part. Im not much or a train guy, but it was pretty neat. Children would certainly have a great time there.
