Each year since 2002 we have hosted an open house in Roundhouse Park and the John St. Roundhouse.   In 2002, we simply opened the doors to the Roundhouse and let visitors peer in at the collection of dust covered buildings, engines and rolling stored inside.  As we grew the museum over the next few years and officially opened it in May of 2010 we continued to open our busy summer season with a two day event on the same weekend as Toronto's Doors Open event and it has become a tradition.

We continue this year with what we call our "17th Annual TRHA Open Doors Event" on Saturday, May 26th and Sunday, May 27th from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.  Above and beyond visits to our existing Museum, diesel cab simulation experience, rides on our miniature train and our Don Station Gift Shop, we will offer added attractions as follows\;

• Visits to our Caboose, GO Cab Car and Cabin D
• A train show featuring three operating model railway exhibits and several railway related exhibits including a tribute to Via Canada on its 40th Anniversary
• Visits to the restoration area where a fireless steam locomotive and the first CP Diesel Switcher are being restored  
• FREE admission to the Museum (Train rides will be available at the normal ticket prices) 

So this is a great weekend to come out and visit us and talk to our staff and volunteers about the museum and its development. Looking forward to meeting you all!
