Railroad Heritage Center

Reviewed By 1414carolyn - Palestine, United States

Great little railroad local history Museum! The curators of the museum have done a wonderful job of presenting the history of the railroad in Anderson County and Palestine Texas. We are lucky to have a resource like this in our small City. It is close to the visitor station and by the farmers market in the downtown. The folks there a very knowledgeable and helpful! Palestine wouldn’t be here now without the railroad. The big Union Pacific rail yard is right across the street. I’m a former mayor of the city and I may be biased but I highly endorse it!
