Oklahoma Railway Museum, Oklahoma City, OK
The Oklahoma Railway Museum in Oklahoma City is an incredible place for both railroad enthusiasts and anyone who wants to learn about the rich history of railroads in the United States. The museum hosts over 2,000 artifacts, from historic locomotives and cars to documents and photographs. Visitors can take guided tours of the grounds and explore the exhibits inside a restored 19th century railway station. They can also take a ride on one of the five restored vintage trains that run through the grounds each weekend, including two steam engines.
The museum's collection includes many items related to American railroading in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, including rolling stock such as passenger cars, cabooses, boxcars, flat cars, hopper cars, and tankers. There are also artifacts related to more modern railroading such as diesels, signaling systems equipment and other technology used by today's railroads. One highlight of the museum is its collection of model trains which showcase different eras in American railway history. There is also a library with books about railroad history available for visitors to explore.
The museum offers visitors educational programs throughout the year featuring topics such as railroad history, engineering and operations. Classes are offered for children aged 8-12 on Saturdays with subjects that include how trains work and their impacts on our lives today. There are also lectures hosted by historians covering various aspects of railroading throughout U.S. history from Native Americans up to current times; these talks often feature audio-visual presentations and interactive elements for a truly immersive experience.
The museum’s staff consists of volunteers dedicated to preserving our nation’s railroad heritage – they work hard to maintain all aspects of running a professional historical site while providing an unforgettable experience for visitors. The Oklahoma Railway Museum offers something unique not just to locals but people from around the world – it provides an opportunity to experience a snapshot into what life was like back when America relied heavily on our railway system for transportation and freight delivery needs.
