Train Rides and Museum Operations

Our regular excursions are run over the entire length of our line that has been extended to make a 10 mile round trip!  These trips last approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes. Shorter trips last approximately 35 minutes.

The museum is open for visitors on Wednesdays and Saturdays from 9:30 A.M. until 2:00 P.M. from April through October except in inclement weather (the museum is also open by appointment). Museum volunteers will be present at these times and visitors are welcome to view the museum facility and the restored Chase depot, exhibits and railroad equipment. For this there is no charge, but donations are welcomed. For a more personalized visit, detailed guided tours are available for a nominal charge. For more details on events and train trips, please go to our Special Events page . Due to limited seating, reservations are recommended and may be made by calling the museum at (256) 851-6276 (NARM) on Wednesday and Saturday mornings. Museum brochures and train schedules can be found locally at The Hen's Nest, Rolo's Restaurant, the Tourist Information Center in the Von Braun Civic Center and its outlets and at most area hobby shops. Please go here for scheduling information.

Safety Notes:

We want your visit to the museum to be a safe and enjoyable one, so we ask that you please abide by the following guide lines:

• Train operations require the use of loud whistles that may startle very young children and there are safety considerations around trains and heavy equipment, therefore we advise not to bring children under the age of three.
• Please wear comfortable properly fitting (casual) clothes and shoes that provide good footing for the train ride and / or tour.
• Please, when you visit, do not attempt to walk or balance on top of the rails or allow children to. Rails are very slippery and can cause a very a bad fall and serious injury.
• Please do not place objects such as pennies on top of rails.
• Please do not allow children to climb on equipment as this could prove to be very dangerous.
• Please obey all of the museum signs including the "No Visitors Beyond This Point" signs.
