It is an excellent high quality museum with hundreds of land vehicles on display.
We decided to come to the museum on a cold afternoon while visiting figuring that it might be interesting but not expecting much. It turned out to be super cool. They have so many really neat machines from old snowplows to tractors to model T conversion snow mobiles and even trains. We are so glad we came. It was well worth the visit. We spent 2 hours in the museum and could have easily spent another 2.
This is an awesome museum! There are memorials outside too. Reasonably priced, scavenger hunts for adults and kids. Well worth your time!
So much history! Galen should have been proud to gather all of that history together! Loved the variety of transportation types. Loved the snow plow history especially. So neat and for a small entry fee was a great way to spend a couple hours.
Old history preserved in its original look some were repaired. The Willys military jeep and the ford military jeep run and drive. $10 admission for adults under 18 yrs free 🪖senior discount. Looking through history kept me smiling and giggling.
Lovely place for kids. I used to go to museums like this as a kids. Looking at the slice of life in different times is always fun. Good if you're on a road trip and need an hour or two to kill check it out.
What an amazing treasure in Bangor Maine! Packed full of so many beautiful machines from cars, trucks, to even a train! Friendly staff and so clean.
Its so much more than what we thought. History mixed in with the transportation and train cars with video regarding the history of the area including transportation and thigs you could watch. We spent a couple of hours here but probably could have spent longer. The staff are all friendly and knowledgeable
Not much to say about this museum other than it is absolutely awesome. My kids love coming here, and we've been a few times with more to come. Very affordable, kids are free, so it's less than 20 bucks for my wife and I. Do the scavenger hunt, you'll easily spend more than an hour admiring everything.
