Railroad Depot Museum
The Tomball Railroad Depot at 201 South Elm Street is the heart of downtown Tomball. The museum is housed in the historic 1907 depot, and it contains train memorabilia, original artworks, antiques and two highly detailed model railroad layouts that are a favorite with kids and train fans. The museum is open Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., and tours are free, according to the City of Tomball. Weekday tours are available by appointment, and groups of more than 10 should give at least two weeks' notice. The museum is closed on German Fest Saturdays and the Saturday after Christmas. The surrounding Depot Plaza is Tomball's main gathering space, hosting community events such as Depot Day, the Rails & Tails Mudbug Festival and Deck the Depot. Old Town's shops, cafes and restaurants are steps away, so it's an easy centerpiece for a day downtown.

Main Street Crossing
Main Street Crossing is an intimate, nonprofit live-music venue at 111 West Main Street in Old Town Tomball. Founded and funded by Rick and Terri Davis, it opened in 2004 after about three years of planning, and the Houston Chronicle reported at the time that it was the first live music venue of its kind for the city. The small room brings national touring acts, singer-songwriters and tribute shows to an audience close to the stage, so every seat feels personal. As a nonprofit, Main Street Crossing also hosts small church services and charitable fundraising events, with concerts run through its for-profit subsidiary, Main Street Music. The organization presents some larger shows at other area venues and promotes community events such as Tomball's July Fourth festival. Catching a concert here is one of the best reasons to spend an evening in downtown Tomball; pair it with dinner at a nearby Old Town restaurant. See the website for upcoming shows and tickets.

The Tomball Farmers Market at 205 West Main Street in Old Town Tomball is held every Saturday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., rain or shine.

The market has grown to nearly 100 vendors, according to Community Impact, and in more than 18 years it has served as an incubator for small businesses, with more than 40 vendors outgrowing the market and opening their own storefronts. The Tomball Farmers Market is a Texas registered nonprofit that also offers educational programs and volunteer opportunities for students and community members.
