Review & FAQ:

The Truckee Railroad Museum is situated in downtown Truckee, next to the historic railroad station that once serviced the town as the primary means of shipping and travel for the Southern Pacific Railroad. All of the onsite cabooses are restored using original Southern Pacific paint schemes and parts, and inside the museum itself is a collection of stories, pictures, recreations, and other railroad related artifacts that showcase the history and importance of railroads in early Truckee history. Hours are Saturday, Sunday, and Holidays 10am to 4pm, depending on whether or not volunteer docents are available.
