Musée des tramways à vapeur et des chemins de fer secondaires français, Railway heritage museum in Butry-sur-Oise, France

The museum displays a collection of railway vehicles from former French departmental railways along the Valmondois railway station in Val-d'Oise region.

Founded in 1976, this institution started with two tram engines recovered from Tramways de la Sarthe that had been abandoned in a forest.

The museum maintains eleven steam locomotives, several diesel engines, electric railcars, and multiple passenger vehicles classified as French Historical Monuments.

Visitors can explore the museum from May through October, with regular Sunday openings and a special festival during the first weekend of October.

The railway operates on a 3.5-kilometer line between Crèvecœur-le-Grand and Rotangy, built on an abandoned SNCF track.
