Science in Motion: A Holiday Train Extravaganza!
It's bigger, it's better, it's beyond your wildest dreams!
Back by popular demand, it's Science in Motion: A Holiday Train Extragavanza. In addition to our amazing holiday season exhibit on trains we have added 5 new train dioramas and a new Passport activity. Come travel the world and beyond with us this season!
Welcome to Science in Motion!
This extravaganza features 5 new train destinations around the world and beyond. A must see with your own eyes! No spoilers here.
Returning this year are our four feature tableaux, including a winter ski hill, a train tree, and 7 model trains. You control the trains by pressing a button. You can also learn about magnets, friction, why train wheels are shaped the way they are, and the circuits that run electric trains through our interactive stations. All this plus a huge LEGO build from our friends at NewfoundLUG, interpretive panels, and a train play table. It's a sight to see!
This special extravaganza has spread to other areas of our building and is included in regular admission.
The exhibit is just for the holidays and will be on display from November 26 until December 21, 2025.
