This little museum and display of rolling stock gives a great introduction to the history of Ontario's railway heritage.The entrance door to the old station has somewhat confused signage but once inside one is in a time capsule of all sorts of artifacts relating to the railroad and Brighton area.As others have observed is is something of an 'old school' type of attraction in that is is not "interactive". That said it should appeal to the young and old alike.What made a big difference was the volunteer on duty and his willingness and enthusiams to show the small group of visitors around and to explain the displays and the history of the rolling stock. This helped to bring the items to life.There is clearly a lot of love gone into gathering the artifacts and attention to detail in displaying them. It is a great spot for not only getting good for photos of the oldtime locos and wagons but also the passing trains too.Check out the times and consider seeking out for a relaxed hours or so's visit.

Lots to see, friendly staff. You might even see a modern train go by while you are there. Something that is missing at some other towns where the trains and tracks have disappeared but the station and maybe a museum remain.Nice that they have an old engine and cars so kids can get an idea of the scale without the danger of being too close to working tracks.

This is a museum that is almost a time capsule of neat artifacts relating to the railroad and Brighton area. It's an interesting 'old school' type of attraction that would appeal to the young and old. Lots of care and attention to detail. Good for photos too with the old trains.

I've popped in a bunch of times with the kids but it never seems to be open. It looks in desperate need of some tlc.

Visited with my father who grew up in Brighton. First view as you drive by is appealing; the old train station and a number of train cars on are sight as part of Memory Junction. The museum is a work-in-progress as the owners collect and display huge amounts of material related to the history of the railway in Brighton, and the history of the town. There were so many details and displays that I did not have nearly enough time to see and read everything of interest. When you visit, be sure to spend some time talking to the owners who have a lot of interesting things to say about the displays and museum. Lots of parking and no cost, though a donation is recommended! Great trains for adults and kids too :)
