DeQuincy Railroad Museum, DeQuincy, Louisiana

As we came nearer the end of our time here, I knew that I had to take Landon to check out the museum, with or without Austin. So, we set off on a rainy morning to check it out! The museum is housed in the old rail station and depot. Passenger and freight trains came through here, and there are tracks on both sides of the station that are still in use!

My favorite pieces were the old type writers, calculators, and Morse code device.

Super interesting to me! Train stop travel notice Als...
