Compassion and courtesy goes out the door when one needs it most here. A good tip... Take an umbrella... You won't get a ride or a little extra time to leave when it rains... CLOSED IS CLOSED!

Home of Ferdinand Magellan - U.S. Car No. 1, the first passenger railcar built for a President since the one made for Lincoln in 1865. It was used by FDR, Truman, Eisenhower, and briefly by Reagan.[

HISTORY

The history of today's Gold Coast Railroad Museum is rather unique. The coming together of persons and events in a rare mix that helped shape today's premier railroad museum in the state of Florida.

Don't forget to check out the Ferdinand Magellan Presidential Pullman. One of a kind!

Great time to stroll with the family. Animals appear to be well taken care off. Go early morning and most animals will be out. Very much worth the price. - Thelocaltripper
