- Manda ShettletonFebbraio 24, 2013Absolutely worth your day and your $7. Tons of trains (I mean a ton), interactive exhibits, and history. Will keep all ages entertained for hours. In a decommissioned subway station. BYO lunch area!
- Noah KochAgosto 25, 2013The museum is in abandoned subway station right across from the MTA HQ in Brooklyn. Come during a cool day as a majority of the museum is not air conditioned. Kids and Adults will enjoy this.
- kirbyLuglio 24, 2014Take a nap on the basket weave seats in a 1930s subway car. Be disappointed there is no graffiti inside the 1980s subway car. Bring a sack lunch and be sure to check out the kids' art work!
- ElisaFebbraio 24, 2019Huge museum, well worth the admission. Check out old subway cars from the early 1900s, and historic transit maps. Tends to attract a children crowd.
