What visitors say
It’s nice to see the history of train station. But it’s a bit small so it’s good to not bring a big group.
Stopped by today, Tuesday & Pam gave our family a great history lesson, friendly and the kids got to try a train horn! It’s free and an awesome stop for our 3 & 6 year old. Also, stop by 2 Toots for lunch!
Unassuming, fun, and hidden in plain sight! This is a great place for the historically inquisitive and for some family time with the kids. We went in out of curiosity and came out with new knowledge of how Bartlett got it’s beginnings.…
