Our annual wintertime favorite returns with Holiday Express: Toys and Trains from the Jerni Collection, featuring model trains, toy stations, and miniatures illustrating the design evolution from the early 20th century to the era of World War II. Families can explore the objects on view with a special scavenger hunt, and train-themed storytimes take place on select dates.
