The views from the train were restricted, as much of the journey was going through tree-lined areas. The commentary on the way up to talkeetna was very poor and disinterested - better on the way back from talkeetna to anchorage. The breakfast on the way up to talkeetna was cold and poor quality - so much so that we didn't even bother with food on the way back to anchorage. Very disappointing given the cost and hype of the gold standard on Denali express. The result was a disappointment given the cost involved. Frankly not worth it

We took a chance on this museum and weren't expecting much. Boy were we surprised! This doesn't look like much on the outside and is only open for a few hours on Saturdays. But it's actually a really cool old railway building and PERFECT for our 3 boys under age five! The upper level has a kids area with tons of Thomas trains and activities. The main level has lots of interactive displays and wonderful volunteers. But the basement you can't miss. Huge model train display! We hope to come back soon.
