Westphalian Railway Museum, Railway museum in Hansaviertel, Münster, Germany.

The Westphalian Railway Museum in Münster's Hansaviertel focused on the theme of railway depots (Bahnbetriebswerke) of the 1950s. It was run by the Freundeskreis für Eisenbahnen e. V., and many exhibits were restored and then operated on the museum grounds or on special trips. Its best-known vehicle was a Köf II small locomotive from 1948.

The museum served as a regional institution for preserving railway heritage and documenting local transport history. After years of operation in Münster, it closed in 2011 and its collection was transferred to the Railway Museum in Hamm.

The museum ran "Hamsterfahrten" (hamster trips) to Enniger, using a Köf II locomotive from 1948 and a restored Prussian compartment coach from 1927. The destination was the former Pängel Anton station, by then converted into a pub. The name recalled the early post-war years, when city dwellers took the train into the countryside to stock up on food.

The museum was dissolved at the beginning of 2011, so there is nothing left to visit at its Hansaviertel site in Münster. Its holdings passed to the Museumseisenbahn Hamm, which had cooperated closely with the Münster museum for years; anyone tracing the collection should look there.

The Köf II from 1948, a small locomotive with an oil engine and fluid transmission, was the museum's best-known exhibit. Coupled with a restored Prussian compartment coach of 1927, it pulled regular "Hamsterfahrten" to Enniger, to the station Pängel Anton, by then converted into a pub. The name recalled the postwar trips when city dwellers rode to the countryside to stock up on food.
