Utterly powerful and full of possibilities for adventure, trains have captivated us for centuries. Get your imagination back on track in All Aboard! centered around the Reuben Wells steam locomotive.
Watch the mighty Reuben Wells "take off" in a spectacular three-minute sound and light show that occurs every 30 minutes, beginning at 10 a.m.
Dreamed up by Reuben Wells, a railroad master mechanic from Jeffersonville, Indiana, the mighty train was in service in Madison, Indiana, for about 30 years, starting in 1868. Eventually, it ended up in a Pennsylvania railyard. So how did it arrive at The Children’s Museum of Indianapolis?
