AREA CENTRAL RAILWAY

ATTRACTIONS MUSEUM
As the largest model train museum in Upstate
South Carolina, the Central Railway Museum
educates and inspires people of all ages to share
a love of trains and promotes the understanding
and enjoyment of America’s railroad heritage.
The museum includes a “heritage” layout in
classic toy train scales as well as a G scale layout
and a large, dual-level HO layout that recreates
rail systems of western South Carolina and
Georgia during the 1950s transition from steam
to diesel. Currently, a new modular HO scale
layout based on FreeMo standards is under
construction, with plans for a future garden
layout display. The museum hosts an annual train
show each February.
