Virginia - Richmond Railroad Museum

Richmond, VA - the Old Dominion Railroad Museum strives to interpret the social and economic impact that the area railroads and their employees had, and continue to have, on the Richmond area and its citizens.

In the fall of 2011 the Old Dominion Chapter of the National Railway Historical Society moved from its former location in a Railway Express car to its restored Southern railway passenger station on the same site. The new facility now includes a stationmaster's office, the freight room where the chapter's donated artifacts and exhibits are displayed, a gift shop, and a room for a layout by a model railroad club. On view outside are a steam saddle locomotive, baggage car and caboose. Free tours are given by knowledgeable hosts. The museum focuses on railroad companies which served central Virginia and their impact on Richmond and its citizens.
