From steam engine to caboose, you can find it at the Age of Steam Railroad Museum. The history of the rails is recounted through a collection that includes a passenger train, a freight train and a branch line train. Steam, electric and diesel locomotives are on display. The tour's real draw is the pre-WWII passenger train complete with a Railway Post Office and baggage car, coaches, lounge cars, Pullman sleeping cars and a dining car.

This amazing museum in the Arts District of Dallas is a phenomenal place to visit. It's small but host to a million little treasures from South and East Asia. Best of all, admission is FREE! The first gallery you typically enter features a temp exhibit, usuall by modern Asian artists; for example they have featured in the past Japanese quilts and works of art made by blind Chinese artisans. Once you go up the elevator, you find yourself in the Chinese gallery, which features things like ornately decorated snuff bottles, tapesties of Manchu rulers, elegant objects of carved jade, large vessels, and much more. Don't forget to check out the objects on the mezzanine.
once you proceed down the adjacent hallway, you'll pass a display case featuring a Mughal-era stand for the holy Q'uran, a knife, and some other objects from Muslim India. In the next gallery, you find the facade of an Indian fort, as well as a multitude of reliefs of Hindu gods. Behind the fort are golden objects from Nepal and South-East Asia. There is a mini-room adjacent where you find ornate wooden carvings.
The museum also hosts regular events (festivals and the like) as well as craft sessions (like mehndi classes) that costs a small amount of money (but the festivals are free).
Last time I went, they were renovating, I think to include a bigger gift shop. All in all, this is a fabulous place to visit. It's small, but inviting and clean, and there aren't security guards breathing down your neck at every turn. 100% wonderful!

Great service from when I first called till they were finished. Very polite, price was perfect, carpets and windows looked wonderful. I was amazed and very satisfied with the service I received. I really liked being able to call one company to do both carpets & windows. I didn't have to make a bunch of calls and coordinate scheduling.

I must admit that I dreaded the idea of finding a repairman for our washing machine. In the past the folks who had been sent out via our warranty contract were nightmares. So I took a chance and found Milton. He was beyond excellent. He worked around my schedule, explained the situation and the costs. Then he got the parts and fixed it ASAP. I asked him about a antique microwave that was broken. He said that he would check on the parts. The very next day he called reporting that the parts weren't made anymore and he just wanted to keep me updated. In a time when customer service seems so lackluster, Milton is a class act and a very talented gentleman. Thank you, Milton.

There is an inside track, mirrors on every wall, and guidance around every corner. It is a little stuffy in this location and Mondays are very crowded.
