1 / 3NORTHLANDZ Train Museum & Miniature Wonderland
π Flemington, NY
Indoor attraction featuring over 100 operating model trains across 8 miles of track, with 16 miniature mountains, 400+ bridges, and 250,000+ trees. A scavenger hunt earns a souvenir mug. Outdoor train rides available weather permitting.
If you're a model train enthusiast, or really enjoy model scenery, you can't miss NORTHLANDZ! This attraction was created out of passion by its founder. You walk through a mile of wonderfully crafted scenes and visuals, as well as experience interactive lighting and sounds. There are also sections of dolls. When you purchase your ticket, you're given the option of completing a scavenger hunt. If you answer a majority of it correctly, you get a complimentary souvenir mug! My partner and I each got one. The scavenger hunt really makes you analyze it much more! Around 80% of the way through is a kids play area and a small seating area that shows a video about the founder and the creation of NORTHLANDZ. You can tell this is a project of passion and it's worth the visit. I would go back again!
π Family Action Verdict
Best for train-enthusiast families and those who appreciate large-scale craftsmanship β this is not a casual drop-in attraction. The one-mile walk and two-hour duration suit school-age children far better than toddlers. Admission is on the higher end for a single attraction; families should be confident in their interest level before visiting.

βNorthlandz has ample parking. They have a wheelchair & stroller entrance. It has a good size gift shop. You can have a birthday party there. You will be walking a mile inside the building. The model railroad has a European style Display. Itβs very creative! If you like Structure design work this is for you. You can play a scavenger hunt throughout the display. We did not see many trains. The place needs some repair. Itβs almost 30 years old. We paid $40. each adult. It took us 2 hours to go through the place. There is only one bench along the way. You will see (8) miles of railroad tracks.β

βWe had a fabulous time at this place. Dont believe all the reviews about broken exhibits and non-functional trains. Everything works fine. We were amazed at the details of the exhibits. They even had a scavenger hunt to find certain details while looking at the miniature trains. Fun place to spend a couple of hours.β

βIt is really impressive! You wonβt believe how much work had been down to finish the giant museum. I spend about two hours to finish the walk inside the museum. I can see a lot of train models and fantastic art there. All the kids were very excited.β
