Fell Locomotive Museum, Railway museum in Featherston, New Zealand

The Fell Locomotive Museum exhibits the H199 Mont Cenis locomotive alongside models, photographs, and railway memorabilia from New Zealand's transportation past.

The museum preserves the last remaining Fell locomotive that operated on the Rimutaka Incline's steep gradient from 1877 to 1955.

The Friends of the Fell Society maintains this collection, documenting the engineering solutions developed for New Zealand's mountainous terrain.

Located at the intersection of State Highway 2 and Lyon Street, the museum opens weekends and public holidays from 10 AM to 4 PM.

Visitors can observe the H199 locomotive's moving parts in action through an electric motor system that powers the mounted display on rollers.
