ny transit authority

the kids and i ventured into downtown Brooklyn today. We stopped into the NY transit museum which is located right off of the Hoyt Schemerhorn stop on the G line. The Museum was small but so cute! i think it would work for a wide variety of ages. You entered the museum as though you were going down into the subway. The first level contains the tranist museum store, and a section i really enjoyed on the history of how the subway system was created. the lower level has the coolest display of antique subway cars. train cars from the early 1900's up through the 1960's were on display and open for exploring. the kids really had a great time going into the trains and checking out the differences between the years past.

the transit museum is a definite must visit when exploring brooklyn. check it out.
