You can buy only a ticket for one venue or the other but you can buy them both and save some money. There is no shade for parking but at the Horseshoe Curve you can take your picnic lunch with you on the ride (or walk, if you prefer) up to the viewing area. The area on top is spacious and has several nice shade trees with picnic tables. One couple even took their own folding chairs along with their lunch. I would give the Horseshoe Curve 60-90 minutes and the Railroad Museum a couple hours. If you get the munchies with all your touring, Boyer Candies is just down the street from the Railroad Museum on 17th Street.
