Here is what a traveller had to say: 11/20/2008
This museum is located in the old Railroad station. I visited in 2008. The staff is an elderly mother/daughter team. The museum is only open on Saturdays for a few hours. There is an some old train cars, inlcuding a crane car, parked outside. They've been parked there since I first visited 50 years ago. Exibits inside show the history of Thomson, old train schedules and memorabilia, old clothing from the 1800-early 1900's, old appliances, etc.. You can see the entire museum in about 5 minutes.
