This museum is a great way to learn about the history of public transit in New York. The best part of the museum was the great collection of historic subway cars. As adults, there was plenty of information to learn. We don't have kids, but if we did, there's plenty of interactive exhibits for them. The price was fair for... More

Really enjoyed this museum. Very informative and interactive, kept my interest the whole time. As well as the history, you also get to learn about the more technical side - how electricity is made, how sustainable energy is made and now neing used. Guy at ticket office was very friendly and it is also good value.

I took my daughter here one rainy day to get out of the house. It is very cool in concept, but other than looking at a bunch of old subway cars in an old subway station, there is not much going on. I wish they took the subway cars out and used them in servie. That would be cool!

Visited this place by entering down the actual subway steps into a real subway station that has been transformed into a museum. Adults who love seeing a part of their growing up time, brought back to life will def enjoy. My grandkids were 6 & 8 & loved it. Not for a long , drawn out visit, keep it short... More

If you like transit-related stuff, visit this! They had some great art pieces and poetry as well as a very interesting case of "lost" items found in the station with comments about them. It very well done - great place to stop in if you're passing through Grand Central or if it's rainy.

See the history of the subways, check out old subway turnstyles, tokens, signage, token booths and best of all, go downstairs and travel back in time on one of the classic subway cars.

top level: besides some turnstiles lined up next to each other and 2 fronts of buses to sit in (kids fighting for the 1 steering wheel) there was nothing for kids to do. all the signs and info were up high. way too much text for children. adults and senior citizens might enjoy it. No scavenger hunt to keep children... More

Even the gift shop is amazing NYC find! I bought earrings with old tokens in them for my wife while taking my cousins from out of town through the museum. Interesting, historic, and entertaining for both New Yorkers and out of towners.

We spent about 2 hours here. It's a short, easy stroll from Borough Hall subway station (lines 2, 3, 4 and 5). The museum entrance is via an old subway entrance and the exhibits are set out over two floors. The upper floor has exhibits about the construction of NY's subway system, bus and other transport options and other ancillary... More
