Educational Group Visits
The Western Railway Museum welcomes school group visits throughout the year. The fee to bring your group varies depending on the size of your group and when you wish to visit.

- Learning about the importance of electric railroads.
- An 11-mile round trip ride on an authentic restored historic electric rail car.
