How to Find Our Museum
The North Alabama Railroad
Museum is located in north Alabama just east of the city of Huntsville in the Chase
community. Local traffic may elect to take Meridian Street north to Alabama A&M University
and then turn right on Chase road. For visitors traveling from out of town,
the major highway leading to the
museum is U.S. Highway 72, which runs west and east between Memphis and Chattanooga. U.S.
Highway 72 can also be reached by taking Interstate Spur I-565 east
through Huntsville. The distance between the traffic at Sparkman Drive and Moores Mill
Road is 1.9 mile. From the traffic light at U. S. Highway 72 and Moores Mill Road, take
Moores Mill Road north for a distance of .9 mile to Chase Road (you will cross two sets of
railroad tracks, please watch for trains). Turn left (west) onto Chase Road and drive .5
mile and the Chase depot will be off the road to the left. Parking is free and there is
Handicap parking available near the depot. If you need more map information about the
Huntsville area, you may want to try this website.
