The Age of Steam Roundhouse Museum is more than just a museum and collection. It is a living, breathing roundhouse where talented restoration specialists work to preserve the locomotives, railroad cars, tools and machinery of the glory days of railroading. Public tours are offered seasonally (May thru October) on Thursdays, Fridays, & Saturdays. The site consists of storage tracks, a store house, coal dock, wood water tank, ash pit, back shop and the jewel of the site, a complete, working, 18-stall, brick roundhouse surrounding a 115-foot turntable and turntable pit. Other than a few, small roundhouses recently built for railroad museums, we believe that this is the first full-sized, working roundhouse built in the U.S. since 1951. The Age of Steam Roundhouse Museum was constructed and is maintained with private funds donated by the Jerry and Laura Jacobson Foundation, Inc., a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) entity.

Wonderfully informative two-hour guided tour. Very clean facility. Helpful personnel. Good value for $20 charge per adult. Fabulous time. One of the best tours I've been on.

We visited during vacation in the Berlin, OH area. We were not disappointed! The grounds themselves are truly beautiful. Any railroad buff understands the excitement that a roundhouse incites, but...
