The Maine Narrow Gauge Railroad is dedicated to the preservation and operation of Maine’s two foot gauge railway equipment for the education and enjoyment of the public. The museum features exhibits relating to Maine’s narrow gauge railway history, several historic rail cars, activities for children, and a unique gift shop.

Train crew and/or museum docents are available to provide historical information aboard the ride. Trains operates rain or shine. Both open air cars and enclosed cars are available depending on the season. Pets are welcome provided they are on a leash and well-behaved.
