train time at dover children's museum  railyard photoAll aboard the Children's Museum for Train Time! Kids love trains and today they can learn lots more about them and even tour an authentic Pan Am freight locomotive engine! Held at the Children's Museum and at the Dover Railyard, this event will inspire your budding young engineers!

Children will be issued special tickets by a uniformed train conductor as they enter the museum today. They will receive free train activity books, pencils, engineer hats and more. In the museum’s Project Area, children can create their own colorful train mosaic to take home. In another part of the museum, representatives of Operation Lifesaver will be on hand to educate families about rail safety.

Once you've had your fun at the museum, pick up a map and head to the Dover Railyard at 75 Oak Street. At the railyard you can tour an authentic Pan Am freight locomotive engine. Volunteers from Pan Am Railways train police will be conducting train tours, punching tickets and answering questions at the railyard.

Pan Am Railways, Amtrak Downeaster and Operation Lifesaver are all participating in this event.

(Train Time activities will be offered earlier in the day for families participating in Exploring Our Way, the Children’s Museum of NH’s Autism Partnership Program.)
