VISIT downtown Monticello

Our weekend trains make stops throughout the day at the Wabash Depot in historic downtown Monticello. Passengers are encouraged to disembark from the train and explore what downtown Monticello has to offer, and catch a later train back to the museum (click here to view the train schedules). There are several shops and restaurants within walking distance of the train station. See below for more information.
