While I was in St Louis last Tuesday I went to the National Museum of Transportation in the suburb of Kirkwood, Missouri.  It was a lovely museum and I highly recommend it.  The displays were set up quite nicely and the grounds were quite lovely with groups of wildflowers around.  The only complaint I had was that some of the railroad equipment was very close together so it was hard to really view it well but they had so much it was probably all they could do and get it under a roof to protect the equipment.  This is a view of their Union Pacific Big Boy which you could get in the cab of and that was quite cool to see.
