Children under 7 years old are free of charge. An adult costs 7 rubles, which is a little more than $ 2. We walked around and looked at the exhibits, which are few, in about an hour. You can enter two locomotives inside, which, for obvious reasons, are crowded with children. Conclusion: I would like a greater variety of exhibits, the most interesting thing for children is to look at locomotives from the inside, press buttons and move levers - they would open more trains to visitors.

The museum is very interesting. Trains, steam locomotives and other railway equipment of various time periods are presented. You can enter all the doors and carriages, touch and feel every detail. I recommend it to everyone to visit.

The ticket price is acceptable. Children under 7 years old are free of charge. Adult 7 rubles. There is one thing: it seems atmospheric, there seem to be a lot of trains, but those in which you can enter no more than 5 pieces : not a single open carriage:( , only cabins:(. There is a buffet, a small museum, a cafeteria, a toilet. But I really would like to see more exhibits that you can enter .
Children under 7 years old will be attracted only by those who are really interested, and if they are just kids, they will say that it is not enough. The most convenient way to get there is by taxi or car, There is parking and public transport is quite rare:(

There are so many interesting things, Everything is done very well, you can visit the train instead of the driver, and see what it consists of. There is also a mock-up museum with tools and accessories of railway workers. You can learn a lot of new and interesting things. There is a cafeteria where you can have a snack with the kids. In short , some emotions , I RECOMMEND 10 OUT OF 5 👍

An interesting and atmospheric place! Visit only during daylight hours, because, unfortunately, there is no illumination of trains and wagons at all.

A very interesting museum. There is a wide selection from wagons from the beginning of the last century to modern diesel locomotives. Detailed technical descriptions of each type of locomotive are given. The only drawback is that not all wagons/locomotives can be accessed inside. An interesting pastime if you are interested in railway transport! Please note that the entire museum is open-air! It is definitely recommended to visit.

Cool trains, but you can "climb" only one or two. The exposition with mini-trains does not work, it got upset.

A very interesting museum, where there is a huge number of steam locomotives from different times.it's a pity that you could only go into a few, I really wanted to see them from the inside as well.Children are delighted with the huge wheels and the opportunity to feel like a real machinist.Be sure to check the work schedule before arrival.

A rare museum, definitely worth a visit. Admission is inexpensive. There is a cafe and a mini-museum on site. You can climb inside the locomotives. The main thing was to see schematically the principle of operation of the steam mechanism. Recommend.

A great museum! We were with the child, he was delighted with the exhibits, especially the platform with the cannon! ))) We went around the whole thing, it was carried out simply, after a tour of the Citadel of the fortress, but it was worth it! A must-visit! I recommend it! 🇧🇾👍🏻

I really liked it, it would seem that there are wagons, trains on rails, but it was interesting to consider. You can go inside some of the exhibits, the children were delighted. It is a pity that the royal soft carriage was closed for inspection, although wooden steps were built, but the carriage itself was closed

For those interested in the topic and not only-a fascinating immersion into the world of ancient railway technology. Steam locomotives from different countries and periods with the ability to climb and spin))). There is also a museum on the territory with a working scale model of the railway, several trains, arrows, semaphores, tunnels. The children will be delighted. There is a cafeteria, all this is next to the Brest fortress, it is convenient to combine on a trip

It's a good museum. Yes, it's not very big. But the impressions remained. Such steam locomotives are super. I would like more ladders so that you can look into many vogons through glass. And there is something to see. There is an enclosed pavilion. But it's a pity that no one keeps order there. Children are running around like crazy and banging on glass windows. And the moms are all on their phones. There's not much of a cafe there. There is ice cream, cookies, chocolate, lemonade. Therefore, there are almost no buyers. I advise you to go and make a discount that this is not Moscow, St. Petersburg. These museums are bigger there. You won't regret it. Just to climb the trains, to the children for happiness. Adults are not inferior either. Including me.

An excellent museum with a good exhibition of luxury equipment. You can climb and touch many of the exhibits yourself.
Expensive, but not a bad tour. However, our guide seemed to be more focused on children, so the three engineers were a little less interested than they could have been.

We were there with my family, and to be honest, it was much more interesting in Baranovichi. But even here there are advantages, for example, a visual aid of a steam locomotive, namely the real steam locomotive of the 20th century.

Yes, this museum cannot boast of a collection of equipment at the St. Petersburg level, most of the samples are no older than the late 1930s. More information plates and panels are needed. But! The museum was created by people who were sick of business and this can be seen from the exposition in the pavilion. There are very interesting things from the station equipment. It is also important that many steam locomotives are active and actively filmed in movies and make retro trips!

There are a lot of steam locomotives, a couple were in the cut and you can climb into the driver's cabin in a couple more. There is not much of a museum on the territory, there are comfortable benches with canopies and information between the rows. You can learn interesting facts. I liked everything very much.

A great place to return to the past. To touch and walk in the trains of the past time. Respect to the creators of such a museum. A lot of work has been done to create such beauty . It is very convenient that this museum is located next to the Brest fortress. And the most interesting thing is that you can make gorgeous photos for memory. I recommend

We decided to watch the exposition with the family so that the child could touch and twist everything))). The museum is open from 11 a.m., there is a convenient parking lot. The whole family was interested in watching and reading about the locomotive. It was even possible to go inside some of them, especially my daughter liked this fact))). The territory is clean and tidy. There is a small museum, but it is interesting to look at the objects that served on the railway of those times. I advise everyone to take a look. The ticket price is not big, about 7p

There are a lot of locomotives and wagons from different times. You can enter some locomotive cabins - special entrances are made in these places - wooden stairs. In other places, you can not climb on the equipment. It is dictated by concern for safety. But it made the children a little sad))) I think parents should discuss this point with them in advance.
Several exhibits are equipped with a glass panel on the audience's side - you can see the internal structure.
I was most impressed by the snowplow train with a huge track cleaning panel in the front and back.
In the building on the territory of the museum there are models of railway stations of regional centers and two models with moving trains. They don't work all the time, they turn on periodically and drive several laps. Be sure to wait. The children really like it. The layout panel shows how much time is left before the next launch.

There are about 50 cars represented, it is interesting that some of them were used in the filming of famous films. But there is one huge BUT... Almost all cars are closed, and the most interesting thing, as a rule, is inside. It is a pity that the organizers decided to close the entrance to the cars, but they say that there was access once.

I really liked the tour! I was a 6th grade student. It was possible to take pictures near and inside the locomotive, diesel locomotive, in the car.
The tour was conducted by a junior researcher
Gaidai Sergey Vladimirovich. A professional in his field! I was able to tell you about steam locomotives and trains in an interesting and fascinating way. It is clear that the person is in his place!

A decent exhibition of steam locomotives should especially appeal to children - you can climb, it's a pity that not all the exhibits are open - you can't look into all the presented wagons, see the interiors of a bygone era

A wonderful open-air museum, with such rare and historical steam locomotives and wagons that have their own history and memory. You can enjoy not only the equipment, but also sit in the cabin of an old steam locomotive and feel the full power of the exhibit, the wheel pairs of which are higher than your height. If you are in the city of Brest, be sure to visit this museum of memory and Istria

An interesting museum in Brest! Required to visit. It is interesting with the tour, as many steam locomotives participated in the filming of various films and TV series.
You need to plan about 3 hours for a visit.
Parking is free.

If you are interested in the history of railway development, then this is the place for you. It will also be interesting for children to sit in the cabin of a steam locomotive and more modern models. But if you are far from all this and are not impressed by the size of a diesel engine of more than 40 liters, then I think you should not go in...

The museum will be very useful for those who are interested in technology and history. The exposition is rich in various examples of railway equipment and steam locomotives. And in some locomotives, you can even climb into the driver's cabin. But due to the fact that the museum is open-air, the safety of the exhibits suffers, there is a lot of rust and dust. So it's better to dress more simply.
But overall the impression is very good, the children really liked it!

I don't recommend it. What's the use of these locomotives if you can't get inside them?)
And there are steps to the cabin for many of them. You get up, you look forward, and the door is sealed. Bummer(
No... I don't recommend it.
