This museum has very nice people and also a history of it's own too. This museum used to be the train station for Laupahoehoe but now it is just a museum because during the tsunami of 60, most of the tracks were destroyed and millions of dollars just to replace them. So they sold the extra tracks instead. If you liked this you should go to the Pacific Tsunami Museum just 30 minutes south of here and visit the Tsunami clock in Hilo.
