Winnipeg Railway Museum, Railway museum in Union Station, Winnipeg, Canada.

The Winnipeg Railway Museum occupies tracks 1 and 2 of Union Station, displaying locomotives, railcars, and technical equipment from different railway periods.

Founded in 1994 by the Midwestern Rail Association, the museum houses the Countess of Dufferin, the first locomotive that operated on Canadian prairies.

The collection includes artifacts and documents that demonstrate the railway's influence on Manitoba's development and connection between communities across Canada.

The museum remains temporarily closed for renovations until November 2025, focusing on electrical upgrades and fire safety system improvements.

Visitors can examine a Jordan spreader from 1911 and learn about the construction of the Hudson Bay Railway to Churchill, Manitoba.
