Volunteers About Us
"Railroads transformed America with ribbons of steel, linking communities and moving people and commodities from coast to coast. The Indiana Transportation Museum preserves this legacy by immersing guests in moving experiences.
"It links destinations throughout central Indiana, offering unique cultural encounters. ITM engages and inspires future generations through the art, science and technological innovation of the railroad." This is the mission statement of the Indiana Transportation Museum.

We operate a 38 miles line once known as the Indianapolis & Peru, and eventually as the Nickel Plate Road. Read about the line's History.

Location
Our Museum and restoration facilities are located in Noblesville, Indiana, only 20 miles north of downtown Indianapolis. View a MAP showing the location of the Museum. The Museum is located in Forest Park which is less than 1 mile north of State Route 32 on State Route 19, North and West of downtown Noblesville. Enter at the South entrance and follow the main road to the Museum.

Events Events
Our Event Calendar is full of exciting railroad events. The A Train runs on our main line, from Hobbs Station located at the Museum to Arcadia and Atlanta, Indiana on many Saturdays and the Nickel Plate Limited runs to Fishers, Indiana on other Saturdays. Our dinner train, the Hamiltonian, whisks riders from Fishers Station to fine restaurants around the courthouse square in Noblesville. Our premier event, the WFMS FairTrain™ presented by KeyBank, transports riders to the Indiana State Fair with 10 round trips each day of the Fair. See our Event Calendar for a complete listing.
