Oklahoma Railway Museum
The Oklahoma Railway Museum began as the Central Oklahoma Railfan Club. Originally, the members organized and operated several railfan trips. In the late 1990s plans for a museum developed and eventually property was purchased which is the home of the museum today.
The museum features a collection of vintage locomotives, passenger cars, and freight cars, many of which were used in Oklahoma during the early 20th century. Visitors to the museum can take a tour of the exhibits, ride on a vintage train, or participate in special events and activities throughout the year.
