A few ideas for you. As for transport stuff, I recommend the Pennsylvania Railroad Museum or any of a million from the tourist train variety. A must see in Boston is the Museum of Science. What a great one. I wish I could say to go to the Heritage Harbor Museum in Providence, but that wont open for another 3 years! I have heard the Museum of Freedom (or something like that) in Lexington (outside Boston) is a good one. There are quite a few around here. OH! The museum of Whaling in New Bedford is good as well. (South of Boston). Did you say New York? Try the Tenement museum. Good stuff. The hip museum? Probably one of the Rock and Roll museums. The new one in Seattle looks cool. I loved the Hall of Fame.
