The Toy and Train Museum fills a restored Victorian-era schoolhouse with dolls, toy soldiers, trucks, cars, model trains, planes, ships, and other childhood collections. It is a specialist museum, but the variety makes it more than a single-theme display.
Families get the most out of it, especially on a Wheeling-area trip that already includes the city's larger historic sights. The setting in an old schoolhouse adds some charm to the nostalgia.
