PAVILION

Building an enhanced artifact pavilion will allow the Museum to exhibit its extensive rare and one-of-a-kind collections of transportation artifacts and protect them from the elements. This project is imperative to the preservation of our unique rail vehicles collection.

EXHIBIT
SPACE

Expanding the Education and Visitor Center will allow visitors to be surrounded by breathtaking exhibits of all modes of transportation from the moment they step through the Museum’s doors.

PRESERVATION
FACILITY

A permanent home on the Museum campus is needed to store a number of artifacts including road vehicles, watercraft, and aircraft so future generations can be inspired by their role in our nation’s history.

Jupiter Replica

The Jupiter made history when it joined the Union Pacific No. 119 at Promontory Summit, Utah, during the Golden Spike ceremony commemorating the completion of the First Transcontinental Railroad in May 10, 1869. Our miniature train engineers would love to share this history with passengers on our Jupiter replica for the next decade or more. Please help us!
