Really some interesting items to look at. In the 3 dimensional battlefield display it would help if they included the stop numbers that the drive through uses but still an amazing piece of work. The ships and models seem to be all over the place. Most are Civil War items but then you get to second world war aircraft and ships that are just randomly thrown in. Kind of confusing. The upstairs seem to not be finished and has a lot of empty space. There is a room with ship models in it that they refer you yo but then that door is locked and you can't even read the signs on a lot of the ships from the one viewpoint you can look through from the glass door. There is also a window in the main room looking in on these ships but I was not able to read the info on these signs from there either ad there is shelves of merchandise blocking a lot of that place. It is worth it to look them over but don't expect a clear picture of the history they have these items there to show.

Awesome museum. Friendly amd knowledgeable staff. This is a train and civil war museum and has lots of great hidden facts about history. The owner has done a wonderful job in creating models of ships, trains, and the civil war battlefield. The gift shop is a nice size and has lots of cool trinkets for sale. The upstairs is blocked off probably for rennovations. There are also a few antique train cars behind the building across from the Mississippi river which makes for a great photo opp. If you are traveling through Mississippi I wpuld highly recommend stopping at Vicksburg as there are hundreds of historical sites.
