Cooma Monaro Railway Museum

Featuring the ‘Travel for Pleasure’ exhibit.

Housed in the beautifully restored Cooma Railway Station building, the Cooma Monaro Railway Museum tells the story of the golden age of railways in NSW. Take a wander through our ‘Travel for Pleasure’ exhibition, explore one of the last remaining, complete railway precincts in NSW and view some of our beautifully restored rolling stock.

Restored Station Building

Take a step back in time to the goldern era of railways

Beautifully restored by our dedicated volunteers over more than 5 years, the Waiting Room, Booking Office, Parcel Room and Station Masters Office offer give visitors the opportunity to experience the opulence of regional railway facilities from a time when railway travel was the primary mode of transport across the state.
