4. Empire State Railway Museum
The Empire Explorers ride leaves from the Empire State Railway Museum, located inside the historic Phoenicia Station of the Ulster and Delaware railroad. Built in 1899, it is one of the last stations left along this line and is listed on the National Register for Historic Places. The Railway Museum is also the owner of historic railway cars and locomotives. Along with rotating exhibitions, you can find a miniature train show, vintage cash register, and historic signage inside.
The museum is open on weekends and holidays from Memorial Day through October.
