The museum presents the story of the North Carolina Railroad Company through timelines, murals, a few old engines, and a model of the original company shops as they looked in the 1880s. The museum is located in downtown Burlington in the only original building from the NCRR’s repair and maintenance operations. Accurately reproduced life-sized trains are portrayed at the station and in-depth narrative gives visitors a taste of the railroad's importance in the community's foundation and economy.
