7 Train: Minutes To Midtown

If your kids love all things trains, then a free visit to the New York Transit Museum at Grand Central Terminal is a must. While there, check out its newest exhibit, which explores the history of the 7 train and the diversifying effects it had on neighborhoods along its route. Kids will get to know all about Queens first subway line—and the city’s only purple subway line—through photographs and items in the museum’s collection. Afterwards, hop on the 7 for an elevated tour through Queens. All ages.
