Viewing Album:  Oklahoma Railway Museum
 
By:Matthew Zisi
Dates:4/2/2016 - 4/2/2016
Album Info:Today, I finally got a chance to visit the Oklahoma Railway Museum in Oklahoma City. The museum, which has a large collection of engines, coaches, cabooses, and other rolling stock, owns part of the old Katy mainline right through Oklahoma Cit. They offer train rides the 1st and 3rd Saturday of the month April through August. If you're ever in the area, it's worth the visit!
