What To Expect

Historic RailPark & Train Museum

Located between two major cities, Bowling Green Kentucky has a long history tied to the evolution of transportation in the area. The current L&N Depot was built in 1925 to replace an older station. At one time, over 20 trains per day departed the current site, providing a hub for Bowling Green's economic foundation to travelers between Louisville, KY and Nashville, TN. Within the Museum, galleries of regional and national importance have been developed for public interest of cultural, historic and socioeconomic Importance. Right behind the museum lies 450 feet of track displaying an E8 Engin, a Railroad Post office car, the Duncan Hines Diner, a 1949 Pullman diner, the towering Pine - a 1953 Pullman Sleeper, the 353 Presidential office car and more!

The tour and museum are a great way to learn about the L&N. This railroad, while now defunct, was critical for the region 150+ years ago. The museum has exhibits set up to provide some regional railroad history. The guided tour walks you through a restored train from locomotive to the caboose. The locomotive has been converted to house exhibits about the L&N, but the rest of the cars were restored to their glory. My tour guide, Dustin, provided lots of interesting information about the day to day railroad life. I grew up around trains in AZ, TX, CO, OK, and AR yet still learned a good deal both about trains and the L&N.
