    The Laupahoehoe Train Museum offers visitors a glimpse into the railway history of Hawaii's Big Island. Located in the small town of Laupahoehoe, this modest museum houses a collection of artifacts, photographs, and memorabilia related to the old Hilo Railroad. Visitors appreciate the well-preserved exhibits and the opportunity to learn about the area's transportation history. The museum is run by dedicated volunteers who are often praised for their knowledge and enthusiasm. While the museum is small, many find it informative and worth a quick visit, especially for train enthusiasts or those interested in local history. Some visitors note that the experience can be brief, and the museum's limited size may not appeal to everyone. The outdoor train car exhibit is a highlight for many, allowing for a hands-on experience. Overall, the Laupahoehoe Train Museum provides an interesting, if compact, look at an important aspect of Hawaii's past.
