REVELSTOKE IS A RAILWAY TOWN

Advertisement

The Revelstoke Railway Museum is one of Revelstoke’s flagship cultural institution, a major attraction and is widelyrecognized as one of the best small railway museums in Canada. We have delighted over 500,000 visitors since opening in 1993 as a grass-roots project driven by Revelstokians.

The Museum houses a variety of exhibits about the construction of the Canadian Pacific Railway through the mountains, featuring steam locomotive No. 5468, which saw many years of service in the Revelstoke region. Visitors enjoy our numerous exhibits about the railway, our extensive model railway exhibit, and for a toonie they can try their hand at being a locomotive engineer in the Rogers Pass on our locomotive simulator.

Our beautiful building, built of locally-sawn timber, is architecturally unique and our grounds include a park and a large collection of rolling stock, perfect for a picnic after your visit. We have received numerous awards, most recently a TripAdvisor Travelers’ Choice award for our consistently high ratings from visitors.

We are conveniently located next to Revelstoke’s popular downtown area and just steps away from Revelstoke National Park’s Nels Nelsen Ski Jump walk and exhibit.
