Train-loving kids, this one's for you. The MBTA is bringing its America 250 locomotive to the Museum! Come see this incredible machine parked on the rails right outside the Children's Museum of Franklin all day on Saturday, September 26.
Inside the Museum, you're invited to join Operation Lifesaver programming (focused on safety in and near railroads) happening throughout the day. Special thanks to the MBTA for making this possible!
On Saturday, the museum is also celebrating Nickelodeon’s Worldwide Day of Play with plenty of opportunities to do exactly that: PLAY!

Sensory Sunday — Sunday, 8–9 AM
A quieter, lower-sensory hour designed to make Museum play more comfortable and accessible for children and families who benefit from a calmer environment.
