Located inside a decommissioned subway tunnel in downtown Brooklyn, New York Transit Museum takes guests to the beginning of time… well, the beginning of the New York City subway, that is. Enter vintage train cars from 1904 to see what it was like to be a straphanger back in the day. Afterwards, follow the evolution of the MTA and New York’s subway transportation with interactive exhibits and historic displays.

With residents from different walks of life, New York City piles on interesting stories and artifacts that give a unique history. Whether it’s troll dolls, old subway cars or morbid anatomy findings, New York houses fascinating unconventional museums that you do not want to miss.
