TRIP's Review of North Carolina Transportation Museum

The NC Transportation Museum features the history of North Carolina’s transportation from the early days of Indian log canoes to trains, planes, and automobiles.

Located at the site of what was once Southern Railway Company’s largest steam locomotive repair facility, today the site houses examples of a variety of forms of transportation and related buildings, including an authentic train depot, a 37-stall round house that includes 25 locomotives, and a 30-minute tour on an authentic steam locomotive.
