The New Braunfels Historic Railroad and Modelers Society maintains the Railroad Museum in a restored Victorian station located adjacent to the Union Pacific tracks in downtown New Braunfels. The museum houses several model displays, including HO and N scale model train layouts, in addition to artifacts of the railroad era. A teletype, c. 1938, has been restored to working condition. Restoration and remodeling on the interior began in 1985, and the building is now as it appeared in the early twentieth century. In 1994 the exterior of the building was also restored. Behind the station sits a real MOPAC caboose and a saddle-tank steam engine.

The NBHRMS is open to all members who are interested in the popular scales from N to G and to those who are interested in promoting railroad history. Each April the Society sponsors the New Braunfels Model Railroad Jamboree at the Civic Center.

Hours are Thursday thru Monday, 12PM to 4PM
