National Museum of Transportation

The National Museum of Transportation, formally called the Museum of Transportation, encompasses ALL modes of transportation! It all began in 1944 with the acquisition of a mule drawn street car and now the museum has the largest collection of steam locomotives in North America. Other collections at the museum include automobiles that range from a 1901 steam powered delivery truck to an incredibly rare 1963 Chrysler Turbine Car. The National Museum of Transportation even has a tugboat that visitors can actually board and explore! U.S. Air Force aircraft are also on display. If it moves, the National Museum of Transportation probably has it on display!
