WELCOME ABOARD
The West Virginia Railroad Museum collects, conserves, restores, and interprets
the legacy of the railroad in West Virginia.
OUR MISSION
The purpose of the West Virginia Railroad Museum, Inc. is to be a cultural resource
dedicated to educating visitors and the community about West Virginia's railroad history.
This mission will be accomplished through the collection, preservation and interpretation
of significant locomotives, rolling stock, artifacts, photographs and memorabilia directly
related to railroads and railroading in West Virginia. In addition to static exhibits,
select pieces of equipment in the collection are restored and operated throughout the year
to demonstrate steam, gasoline, and diesel technology and provide visitors with a first-hand
experience of our railroad history through the sights, sounds, and sensations of a train ride.
