Train enthusiasts shouldn’t miss an opportunity to visit the Wilmington Railroad Museum. It’s an especially popular choice with children, who love the real, historic locomotive, its hands-on displays and model railroad sets. The museum is housed in a former railroad freight house that was built in 1883.
