I visited this while I was in town for the Ramps and Rails festival. It was free because of the festival which I thought was nice but I was more than willing to pay the admission. There is a lot of railroad history inside of the museum as long as a video and a bit of a guide for the larger crowds that were there. It highlights how the railroad was started by Davis and Elkins and how the college and towns are subsequently named after them. Nice bit of WV history here as you peer into the past.

The museum is concise and to the point in giving visitors an idea of the railroad life in the mountain state. Besides the photos, artwork, dioramas and equipment, there is footage and audio of railroad employees who shared their stories. Thumbs up to Emma!

Absolute gem. Take your kids if you want to show them the real American history. This place is amazing with lots of artifacts from the past that can reshape your thought process.

However, this museum provides a detailed history of Railroads in West Virginia despite not having enough exhibits to display. In short, I had a great time there and I hope there will be more exhibits the next time I enter...
