The A&D Toy Train Museum was a great tourist destination in Middleboro Mass. It closed in the early 2000's. Here is the Padell family trip to the museum in 1990, featuring many of the trains the museum had and let kids run.
@cvplante I am glad you like the video, I wish the VHS tape had been in better shape. The A&D is remembered very fondly by my boys, now in their 20's, as well as the members of our HO train club the Old Colony Model Railroad Club. I will be trying to get a professional transfer of the video to DVD to see if it will eliminate the lines that blur parts of the video.
I am very happy that this brings back happy memories to people.
This was my grandfather's museum. I was young while it was still open, and my memories of it are pretty fuzzy. I don't think I've seen a video of it before now, I really enjoyed this, thank you. Nice to remember my grandfather's passion for trains and the fun times we all had there : )
