It had its humble beginnings as part of a special collection on display at Bishop College in 1979 and soon grew and became a constant exhibit in its own right - with the collection growing until it soon had a building of its own.

Whether you have kids along on your tour bus visit to Dallas or just big kids at heart, they will enjoy a visit to the Age of Steam Railroad Museum at 1105 North Washington Avenue. Age of Steam Railroad Museum is for anyone who loves trains. This museum teaches and celebrates the contributions that steam engines made in the building of the United States. Dallas was a major hub on the railway in the late 1800s which was unusual for a city that had no seaport or major rivers. Your tour bus group will find a lot of interesting memorabilia from those times. The railway closed permanently in 1969 after the decline in the need for passenger trains made it unfeasible to stay open any longer. In 1971, Amtrak brought train service back to Dallas and was later joined by the City of Dallas' light rail service for intracity travel. If you want to know more please call 214) 428-0101.
