    We came here for a wedding this past Saturday. I have been telling every person I come across about…read morehow this was the best wedding I have ever been to. The location is conveniently located by the airport and airport hotels. Upon walking in we were greeted by a very cool dining card wall, coat check, and some history about the building. As soon as we turned the corner we saw the huge B29 sitting in all of its glory in the middle of the space. It was epic. The open bar was located right in front of the nose of the plane. I want to give a shout out to the bar manager and staff. They worked so hard non stop and did an amazing job. While getting drinks several servers came around with delicious appetizers. Guests could also get in line to go inside the B29 for a tour. After cocktail hour the bride and groom flew into the reception right outside the hangar door! The staff then served us a delicious three course meal starting with Caesar salad, steak and chicken with vegetables and potatoes, and of course wedding cake. After dinner we went upstairs to see the B29 museum which offered views of the entire venue. The nine piece band entertained the guests until 11pm. This was hands down the most fun and unique wedding I have ever been to!

    Amazing education and visitor center dedicated to B 29 "Doc". Well worth the $10 admission fee and…read morethe extra five dollars to tour the flight deck. Definitely will come back at a later date.

    Visiting the Frank Lloyd Wright Allen House in Wichita is a rewarding little detour, even if you're…read moreonly taking it in from the sidewalk, since the grounds are private and not open to the public, but you can still see a surprising amount while being respectful of the property. Designed in 1915 for Henry and Elsie Allen, the house is a beautiful example of Wright's Prairie Style, all long horizontal lines, art glass, and a low roofline that settles into the neighborhood in that unmistakable Wright way. They do offer tours, but this random weekday after lunchtime wasn't one of those times, so I just walked the perimeter and appreciated how the geometric detailing and symmetry reveal themselves from different angles, making it absolutely worth a quiet stop.

    Every time I go to a new FLW I always say "this is my favorite one." I truly think - 'could I live…read morehere right now?' This one I would say yes. The gift shop is so little and that is fine but it is difficult to herd the guests and the tour guide we had was really knowledgable. The house is nice and I think the normal tour is the one people should opt for because it covers what you want anyway. The best part, they accommodated us last minute and I really appreciate that. I wish that the gift store had enamel pins :)

    The layouts here are amazing! They have display cases with many model trains. Several layouts…read morehave running trains. The people who run the museum are great to talk to. I'm glad I visited.

    This was a fun place to visit. It's not the largest of museums or the most all-encompassing, but…read moreit it's interesting and fun. I'm surprised there are no other reviews for this place. For the most part, it is on one level. There is a small playroom for tots upstairs and a small layout. Downstairs is where it's all happening. The first room we were taken to housed a layout that was bequeathed to the club. This was my favorite. The HO scale layout fills the room and has a great track design. It's the details of this that are mind boggling. The there is the Old West and everything about the layout adds to that. The steam locomotives are period pieces as are the rolling stock. Beautiful pieces. The buildings are all period and are weathered for realism. The people and vehicles are also in line with the theme. There are small touches, like a bird sitting on a telegraph wire. There is a lumber yard and the layout builder whittled tiny split logs -- hundreds of them -- just like real cut wood with bark on one side and the bared wood inside. It's said that he did this task while watching TV. I could have stayed in that room all day looking at different aspects of the layout. I have always wanted one with this theme and this is what I'd always envisioned it looking like. Absolutely gorgeous. In the main room, there are several layouts, some relatively simple and some more intricate. One side of the room has the skeleton framework for a new layout started and I look forward to seeing the progress next visit. There is a small layout with transformers for kids to actually run some trains. Nice touch. The walls are lined with cases filled with trains and train related items donated to the museum. Walking through them brings back memories of the Lionel O gauge trains of my youth. Off in another room is a layout with a Swiss theme. Oh my! The track design is interesting but the layout scenery, etc., is amazing. There are many moving pieces, like a Ferris wheel, cable cars strung between the mountains, and so much more. The headlights and taillights of the cars on the street scenes actually light. That must have been a wiring nightmare. Dim the lights and the night scene comes alive. I've rambled long enough. If you're in the area when it's open, do visit. Sadly, it's only open on the second and fourth weekends of the month, 10am-5pm Saturday, 1pm-5pm Sunday. And one last thing, the people working there couldn't be nicer. They answer questions, point out interesting things, and just seem to love what they're doing. I'll definitely be back.
