How about a visit to the Wilmington Railroad Museum?
The Wilmington Railroad Museum has a great collection of displays that are fun and educational.
On the FUN side are a Thomas the Tank Train play area, operating HO and O scale trains, and a real life-size caboose and steam locomotive.
Educationally, we trace the development of railroads in the Wilmington area as well as the careers of famous people who were involved with railroads, such as Thomas Edison and George Pullman
