Suffern Railroad Museum

Location: Suffern (3 miles)

The Suffern Railroad Museum, located in Suffern, New York, is a small, community-focused museum that celebrates the rich history of railroading in the region. It is housed in the historic Suffern Railroad Station, which was originally built in 1887. The museum offers a variety of exhibits, including railroad artifacts, photographs, and historical information related to the railroad's role in the growth of Suffern and the surrounding areas.

One of the key focuses of the museum is the Erie Railroad, which played a major part in connecting Suffern to larger cities like New York. Visitors can view historical train equipment, tools used by railroad workers, and models of trains. The museum aims to preserve the local railroad legacy and educate visitors about the importance of the rail industry in shaping the community.

The Suffern Railroad Museum is generally open on select weekends and is run by volunteers passionate about local history and railroads. The museum's proximity to the still-operating Suffern train station adds a real-time feel to the historical setting.
