PoMo Museum, History and railway museum in Port Moody, Canada.

The PoMo Museum features exhibits about regional transportation, including a 1921 CPR sleeper car and numerous railway artifacts spread across multiple galleries.

Founded in 1969 by the Port Moody Historical Society, the museum moved to its current location in the former Canadian Pacific Railway station building in 1978.

The museum maintains an oral history collection that documents local residents' experiences, preserving community memories through recorded interviews and digital archives.

Visitors can explore both indoor and outdoor exhibits, including a heritage garden with period-appropriate plants from 1910-1912 and the Venosta railway car.

The museum houses a postcard barrel in the former telegraph room, allowing visitors to send unstamped mail following a tradition from 1793 Galápagos Islands whalers.
