Railway Museum

The Railway Museum in Livingstone holds a broad collection of steam locomotives, passenger carriages, and technical equipment that document transportation development across Southern Africa. Outdoor displays of large railway machinery provide a sense of the scale and power of these vehicles.

The museum was established in 2003 and preserves steam engines and equipment from the colonial period when railways connected different regions across the nation. These vehicles came from an era when railway construction shaped economic and social development throughout the region.

The exhibits feature locomotives and railway equipment that served various communities who shaped the rail network's development in this region. These displays reflect the diversity of people who lived and worked in Livingstone throughout different periods.

The museum offers guided tours that walk visitors through the collection and explain how the vehicles operated. Good pathways make it comfortable to view the large equipment and photograph it from different angles.

The site houses one of the nation's oldest locomotives from the early 20th century, which visitors can still observe today. This particular engine demonstrates how robust these machines were and the long history they represent.
