Family Day Weekend Tours

Toronto Railway Museum

On Saturday, February 15 we will offer a sneak peek of our upcoming summer guided tours to the public!

This summer, we will be unveiling two new tours for visitors to experience: Tales of the Rails and Mechanical Marvels. Learn more about why railways were introduced to Toronto in the first place, and how the ever-increasing population impacted train travel as we know it. Along with access to our collection, there will be interactive aspects of the tour and guests will learn how railways significantly facilitated and enhanced the development of Toronto into the city we know today. The tours on this day will be an oppourtunity for us to test out the script and pacing before the summer, so we will seek feedback from the visitors who join us on the tours. Each tour will be approximately half an hour long, and will take guests on a walk through the park and into some of the passenger cars and buildings in our collection. The tour at 2pm will be our Tales of the Rails tour, and the tour at 3pm will be our Mechanical Marvels tour. As with our seasonal guided tours in the summer months, we advise attendees that there will be walking on uneven ground involved, as well as climbing ladders and stairs, so registrants will need to be prepared for this level of physical activity. We would also like to inform prospective attendees that there will be no refunds issued on purchases for the tour unless the event is cancelled by the event organizer.Please dress for the weather and icy park conditions. Your ticket will also provide admission to the museum for the day. We look forward to seeing you this Family Day long weekend!FAQsWhat are my transportation/parking options for getting to and from the museum?There is no parking directly at the Roundhouse. However, underneath the Roundhouse there is parking offered by the Metro Toronto Convention Centre. Rates may vary by day due to other events being held at the MTCC, so be sure to check their website for updates. If taking public transit, the John Street Roundhouse is about a ten minute walk from both Union and St. Andrew subway stations. The 504 King streetcar stop is at John Street, then a ten minute walk south. If taking the 509 Harbourfront streetcar, the closest stop is at Rees Street.What&#x27;s the refund policy?There will be no refunds issued on purchases for the event unless the event is cancelled by the event organizer.Do I have to bring my printed ticket to the event?If you purchase tickets online prior to one of the event days, you will need to bring a copy of your ticket (either printed out on a mobile device) and present it at the door.
