Gold Coast Railroad Museum

Gold Coast Railroad Museum (GCRM) is dedicated to the promotion of railroad history and culture through preservation, restoration, and education. Home to over 40 historic railcars, including the "Ferdinand Magellan" Presidential Railcar, better known as U.S. Car No. 1, the story of GCRM began in 1956 when train enthusiast William J. Godfrey chanced upon the miles of abandoned railroad track snaking through the pineland of University of Miami’s southern campus. He imported a newly retired steam engine to the premises, and a tribute to railroading history began! Now in a new location in Miami proper, the museum continues to honor trains’ role in American history, with exhibits on locomotives, passenger cars, and the Richmond’s Naval Air Station’s fleet. Visitors can hop aboard a full-size diesel locomotive passenger coach and run motorized or free-wheeling trains through a model railroad.
