So... yeah... in my quest to see and do everything there is in Florida... This mini-adventure brings me to the Central Florida Railroad Museum in Winter Garden, Florida.
How thrilling.
It's part of the Winter Garden Downtown Historic District and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. woo. Oh hey, and its free to go inside!

Built inside of the 1913 Tavares and Gulf depot.
