Temple Railroad and Heritage Museum
Transportation
Temple Railroad and Heritage Museum in Temple, Texas, occupies the city’s 1911 Santa Fe depot, directly tying it to the rail network that drove Temple’s development. The collection focuses on historic railroad equipment from different eras of rail travel and labor, including a steam locomotive, diesel engines, passenger cars, freight cars, cabooses, and sleepers linked to the Santa Fe, Missouri Pacific, and Missouri-Kansas-Texas lines. Notable pieces include Baldwin no. 3423, ATSF no. 2301, BNSF no. 1680, the Pullman sleeper Clover Glade, and a U.S. Army troop sleeper. The depot and collection together preserve Temple’s long railroad heritage, including evidence of later events such as arson damage in 2015.
