About Oklahoma Railway Museum

The Oklahoma Railway Museum, a nonprofit in Oklahoma City, focuses on railroad history and how rail shaped Oklahoma and the nation. Its grounds are mostly outdoors and hold locomotives, passenger cars, freight cars, and cabooses that visitors can walk through. Entry to the museum itself costs nothing, though riding the trains requires a paid ticket. Scheduled rides use vintage diesel locomotives and historic passenger coaches, and the museum also runs seasonal events such as a Halloween train and a Polar Express ride. The organization began as a small chapter of the National Railway Historical Society and has since grown to four operational locomotives.
