  Cute hidden camouflaged train museum with lots of electric toy trains on what looks like hundreds of feet of train tracks going back and forth and through tunnels and by miniature towns of various periods representing the local regions and further away. Many old signages and sturdy lanterns, a grand sounding bell you can ring and lights to play with. It's even possible to rent the facility to use with your own trains. Historic material available on trains, train conductors, train stations, uniforms, train companies, and the various technologies used.
  BE AWARE, it's not obvious the museum is there, even when you are standing a foot away from it's main entrance door or rear entrance door, which is a big brown sliding door that's normally closed and you'll need to open it yourself and close it after entering. The building looks like it's just an old unused building that's part of the Santa Clara train station.
