The Florida Railroad Museum is located in Parrish and was founded in 1981. Since 1992, the museum has operated a heritage railroad that offers weekend excursions along a six-mile section of the former Seaboard Air Line Sarasota Subdivision, traveling roundtrip to the nearby ghost town of Willow. Excursions depart throughout the morning and afternoon hours on Saturdays and Sundays and travel for 13 miles, with rides lasting approximately 80 minutes. In addition to standard weekly trains, a number of special event trains are operated throughout the year, including a train robbery reenactment, a World War II-themed train, and a holiday Polar Express train. The train’s party caboose may also be rented for private parties and special events.
