The Ligonier Valley Rail Road Museum, located in Ligonier, Pennsylvania, is dedicated to preserving the rich history of the Ligonier Valley Rail Road, which was founded by Judge Thomas Mellon and began operations in 1877. Since its opening in 2010, the museum, housed in a restored 1896 railroad station, has become a repository of over 3,000 artifacts, showcasing the railroad's impact on the community and its operations until the last run in 1952.
The museum features a variety of historical items, including lanterns, locks, keys, and original dinnerware, as well as a 1905 Bobber Caboose. With ongoing efforts to collect memorabilia and engage the public, the Ligonier Valley Rail Road Museum stands as a testament to the region's railroading heritage.
