Tucked away inside the entertainment district of Toronto, this museum showcases the older side of the city. Back when Canadian National used downtown Toronto as a switching station and repair depot for their trains.
This museum is a hidden gem that becomes even cooler when you realize it has been deconstructed and put back together brick by brick to allow an underground parking garage to provide a new foundation.
The outdoor trains and switching tracks are cool by themselves, but the indoor area tucked away between steam whistle brewery offers a great deal of history and an interactive train simulator that is fun for all ages.
A good stop for anyone in the area looking to spend 30 minutes learning something new.
