About
The National New York Central Railroad Museum is owned and operated by the City of Elkhart. Founded in 1987, NNYCRRM is an ever-growing preservation site of local and national railroad heritage pertaining to the New York Central System. New York Central was once the second-largest railroad in the US, with 11,000 route miles of track in eleven states and two Canadian provinces.
Elkhart is a natural home for the museum; NYC’s Robert R. Young Yard (now Norfolk Southern’s Elkhart Yard) is the second-largest freight classification yard east of the Mississippi River. Just as when the railroad first arrived in Elkhart in 1851, Elkhart functions as a vital link in the chain connecting the Atlantic Seaboard with the Midwest and beyond.
Mission Statement
The National New York Central Railroad Museum (NNYCRRM) preserves and interprets the history of the New York Central Railroad Company to deepen public understanding of America’s railroading past and inspire future generations to sustain the legacy of rail transportation locally and globally.
