Bahnmuseum Kerzers, Railway museum in Kerzers and Kallnach, Switzerland

The museum displays a collection of locomotives, rail cars, and technical equipment from various Swiss railway companies across two locations in Kerzers and Kallnach.

Starting in 1999, the Wymann family gathered historical railway vehicles, leading to the museum's official opening in 2002 with approximately one hundred different vehicles.

The museum exhibits include the earliest tank car in Switzerland and dining cars from the Oensingen-Balsthal railway that operated on the Orient Express route.

The collection moved from Kerzers to Kallnach in 2008 due to industrial track access issues at the Kerzers train station location.

The museum housed dining cars WR 402 and 403, constructed in Prague during 1906-1907, which later found service with Swiss Federal Railways.
