What's New

Property Expansion

The Friends of the Railroad Museum have acquired the parcel of land denoted by the arrow on behalf of the Museum.  Located across Bishop Rd. from the current outdoor restoration yard, this land will provide more space for storage of the Museum's growing rolling stock collection, and related support facilities.

Concurrently, the Museum is undergoing a physical planning process that will point to the most effective use of its resources.
