Historic Railpark & Train Museum

Take a step back in time to the golden age of passenger rail service. Explore the 2-story museum inside the historic 1925 L&N Depot before being escorted by a tour guide through the historic railcars. Sit in the engineer’s seat, imagine being served exquisite cuisine in the dining car, learn the story of the Pullman sleepers and so much more!

Exhibits

The Historic Railpark and Train Museum at the L&N Depot has something for all ages. Vintage equipment and artifacts will stoke the memories of those old enough to have experienced this bygone era in our nation’s transportation past.
