 | | Rail City Historical Museum is the site of the first steam-operating railroad museum in the United States. |
 | | Housed in the former RWO & NYC depot from Deer River, NY, the Rail City Historical Museum contains an extensive collection of steam-era photographs, displays of railroad timetables, brochures, posters, artifacts, railroad memorabilia, and a unique railroad gift store. |
 | | In addition, the museum features the history of Rail City Museum, a fascinating account of how an eccentric visionary, Oswego County resident Dr. Stanley A. Groman, single-handedly saved a score of railroad locomotives, cars, trolleys, track and structures from the scrap heap and in the process constructed the nation's first steam-operating railroad theme park. |
