Welcome!

Located in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, the Alberta Railway Museum (ARM) houses a collection of various railway equipment and buildings. Our main emphasis is on cars and locomotives from the Canadian National Railways (CNR) and Northern Alberta Railways (NAR). The Museum welcomes everyone from families to railway enthusiasts.

Our season runs from Victoria Day weekend in May through Labour Day weekend in September. The museum is open 1000 to 1700 (10:00 am to 5:00 pm) daily during this period.

During our summer season, our speeder cars run daily, offering passenger rides. We also offer passenger service with our locomotives on select weekends - Victoria Day (May), Canada Day (July), Heritage Day (August), and Labour Day (September).

Guided and self-guided tours of the Museum are available, and last approximately 90 minutes. We also have a gift shop which sells souvenirs, snacks and beverages.

For all purchases, we can accept debit cards, Visa and Master Card.

Because we are an industrial site, we regret that not all of the Museum's grounds and collection are wheelchair accessible. For this same reason, baby and child strollers are not recommended for touring the site. Plan to bring a carrier.

Special events and news of the Museum are posted on our News page. Comments on the site, including any content errors or omissions, can be sent to Herb Dixon.

The Museum is run by the Alberta Pioneer Railway Association. For membership information, click here.
