Route 66 Mother Road Museum

"I saw that the museum was open from a YouTuber who I follow, Sara-Jane, also known as Wonderhussy Adventures. No entrance fee so make sure to leave a donation and/or buy some merchandise from the very friendly and knowledgeable workers. They are happy to answer questions and share information with you. On our way to Vegas I planned a stop here and checked their open hours on Google Maps to make sure we'd get to see the museum. I'm glad we stopped in! The museum had more exhibits and artifacts than I had expected. We spent about an hour going through it and also looking at the merch they have for sale (bought a cool Route 66 T-shirt). Stop here on your way through Barstow! The Train Museum (next to the Route 66 Museum) was also on my list to visit but they were closed on the Tuesday I was passing by. I'll make it there the next time I'm in the area again."

"Fun experience on our mini road trip. Lots of history to explore. Was very surprised there was no fee to enter, that was a plus and the pink Cadillac was great to see. Nice stop to add to our adventures for the day."
