Kruger Street Toy and Train Museum

 What do you do when your collecting hobby gets out of control? Start a museum, of course!  Allan Robert Miller and his son, Allan Raymond began collecting toy trains in the 1970s and soon expanded into collecting all kinds of toys. 

This amazing collection of toys and games is housed in a 1907 former school. Each room has a different theme - board games, HO-gauge and O-Gauge trains, a giant puzzle and Disney toys, a K-nex amusement park, local history, and cars, trucks, and trains from the 1800’s to the present. Most of the rooms have toys and games that visitors are permitted to play with. The first floor center hall features a large Lego display. The second floor has a case filled with dozens of bobbleheads. 

The old metal toys are beautifully crafted. 

The entire basement is filled with Snoopy memorabilia, a collection donated by Dr. William Mercer, a local Wheeling doctor. 

The accessible entrance is on north side of the building. Call to have someone open the door. Once inside the floor slopes down steeply before leveling out. A small elevator, operated by the staff, provides access to all the floors. All the rooms are accessible. 

RVs will fit in the lot if parked across the spaces. Museum 40.04076, -80.65856
