The Land of 10,000 Lakes is full of attractions for people of all ages and interests. Whether you prefer daredevil nature adventures or quiet tea room jaunts, you’ll have a good time in Minnesota. One of our favorite places is a fascinating model railroad museum that most Minnesotans have never heard of. If you’re a train enthusiast – or just looking for something to do on a rainy day – add this spot to the top of your bucket list.

The Twin City Model Railroad Museum is located at 668 Transfer Rd. #8, St. Paul, MN 55114.
