Texas Transportation Museum was begun in 1964. It's a great place, built and run by volunteers who like this stuff so much we are willing to work for free! We receive no government funding of any kind and are totally dependent on the income we make from visitors. We must be doing something right if we are still here after 40 years! We are open three days a week and offer scheduled train rides on Saturday and Sunday afternoons.
We hope you find our site informative about the museum and the history of transportation in and around San Antonio. We really hope you will come to visit us and experience our collections, our working railroad and the various smaller scale train layouts that we operate.

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT
The Texas Transportation Museum will be closed all day on Saturday January 21, 2012. This will allow museum volunteers to attend the memorial service for our dear friend, Pete Stabe, who passed away in late December. Pete was a wonderful family man, a good friend and a truly dedicated museum member. He is deeply missed by everyone who knew him.
The museum will re-open at the regular time on Sunday, January 22.
