My husband enjoyed this museum and was impressed with all of there things. Planes, Trains, Automobiles, snow machines and lots of great history that would be lost without this great museum. It was easy to find and worth the visit. Will visit it again because they have lots of room to grow. They were very friendly and knowledgeable regarding the... More

This place is out past Wassilla and worth the trip. They've got trains cars you can go into, antiqued snow mobiles, an old coast guard tower, alot of vehicles and some artifacts. I went when it was rain'n and it really added to the atmospher.

We were visiting our son and daughter-in-law who have recently moved to Alaska or we would not have known about this very interesting museum. There were so many antique modes of transportation from boats to trains to planes to helicopters and also many antique tools -- there was even a covered wagon. It was a great step-back in history.

A good look at the "real" things that have made Alaska what it is today. From vintage airplanes that flew the skies duringWorld War II to god dredges, and steam locomotives, this is the place to stop. Easy access from the Parks Highway just north of Wasilla.

We spent a good couple of hours here and wouldn't have known about had not a friend from home suggested we call in if we had time. A gobsmacking variety of machinery & equipment on display showcasing the history of Alaskan development. Everything from chainsaws & outboard motors to full size aircraft & trains. For anyone interested in the Bush... More

This is a great museum that showcases all type of antique transportation from trains, planes, cars, snowmobiles, firetrucks, and so on. The outside exhibits have a good variety of equipment in various stages of repair. Most items have informational signs, but some did not and it would be helpful to know more about the item. One of the trains on... More
