Public Tour
In 1827, the first mile of track for the first chartered railroad in the Western Hemisphere was laid.
With this groundbreaking moment, a wave of new technology would follow, forever changing how we move people and goods over land. On this tour, we will use our historic collection to explore the history of railroad locomotive design from the very first passenger cars on the railroad through today.
