The museum's collection includes two rooms of operating HO and N-gauge model railroads, a reference library, dining car china, and other railroad artifacts. Engines and rolling stock in its collection include the Frisco 1519 steam locomotive, an operational 50-ton G.E. switcher locomotive, nine authentic cabooses, five different kinds of boxcars, twelve different types of freight cars, two types of flatcars, a three-dome tank car, a railway post office car, and a former Amtrak lounge car that is now used as a dining car.[2] The museum also leads bi-annual trips utilizing its cabooses from historical Enid area rail service.
The museum is built next to a freight yard.
