Age of Steam Roundhouse, Railway roundhouse and museum in Sugarcreek, United States
The Age of Steam Roundhouse is a railway museum in Sugarcreek with solid masonry walls and multiple stalls for locomotives. The building houses a collection of steam locomotives, diesel engines, passenger cars, and railway equipment from the United States and Canada.
The building was created in 2011 after the sale of the Ohio Central Railroad System and was the first large facility of its kind built in the United States in decades. Its founding shows how railroad history is preserved and brought back to life.
The place tells stories about railroad culture across North America through its collection of locomotives and railway cars. Visitors can see how railroad workers did their jobs and understand the role trains played in everyday life.
The museum is only open on certain days during the warmer months and requires advance registration. Visitors should wear appropriate clothing as it can be cool inside and some areas have uneven surfaces.
The museum can still operate steam locomotives on real freight trains today, combining preservation with active use. This sets the place apart from many other museums that only display.
