Check out the museum's schedule online before your visit. They often have special events or talks happening that are totally worth attending.

I recommend arriving right when the museum opens at 9 AM. It's way less crowded, and you can explore at your own pace without feeling rushed.

If you're planning to check out the IMAX film, buy your tickets online ahead of time. They can sell out quickly, especially on weekends.

Definitely check out the gift shop; I found some unique items that were reasonably priced compared to other museum shops. Don’t skip it!

My advice is to grab a map at the entrance; it really helps you navigate and find the exhibits you wanna see instead of wandering aimlessly.

I suggest checking out the outdoor displays first thing! I missed them and it was such a bummer. They closed earlier than I expected!

My advice is to wear comfy shoes! The museum is bigger than it looks, and there's a lot of walking involved. I was hurting by the end of the day.

If you want to save some cash, consider bringing your own snacks or drinks. The on-site cafe is a bit pricey and not as exciting as the exhibits

If you're into history don't rush! I suggest taking the full tour since it dives deep into Molly's life and trust me it’s more interesting than it sounds

Plan to visit around 2 PM. It seems to be a quieter time, and we had a more intimate experience without being rushed by big groups.

My advice is to wear comfy shoes. The floors are a bit creaky and uneven, and you'll wanna explore every corner in this charming house!

If you're really into transportation history, consider getting the audio guide. It added a lot to my experience and helped me understand the exhibits better.

When you visit, don't rush through the train car displays. Take time to read the descriptions. I skipped some and ended up missing out on interesting stories.

Pack a snack! The museum can be a bit overwhelming, and you might want to take breaks between all the exhibits. Plus, food nearby can be pricey.

Don't skip the rooftop terrace! The views are stunning, and it's a perfect spot to relax. Just a heads up, the elevator can be a bit slow, so be patient - it's worth it!

If you're planning to visit, try to go on a Wednesday afternoon. That’s when they have fewer crowds, so you can really enjoy the art and take pics without people in your way.

I highly recommend checking their schedule for free admission days; I saved some cash that way! Many locals say it's a great time to check out the exhibits without feeling rushed.

I recommend visiting on a weekday around 10 AM. The crowds were way smaller, and we got to soak in all the info without feeling rushed. Weekends can be super packed.
