Northern Pacific Railway Museum
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Northern Pacific Railway Museum is a railroad museum in Toppenish, Washington.
In 1990 the ex-Northern Pacific Railway depot in Toppenish, WA, was leased and subsequently purchased from the Burlington Northern Railroad in 1993 for the museum.
In 1993 the 1902 Northern Pacific steam locomotive #1364 was leased, and restoration began.
The museum currently houses a large collection of Northern Pacific Railway memorabilia as well as a full scale 1930 vintage Northern Pacific freight train.
Special events take place throughout the year and allow short train rides in a restored caboose.
