The museum maintains 1.9 kilometers of exhibition tracks and houses additional locomotives at Rostov-Zapadny station, offering guided tours for educational groups.

The collection includes a late 19th-century chemical tank car and numerous preserved narrow-gauge locomotives that represent Russian railway engineering development.
