List of museum railways

 Map with all linked sites: OSM | WikiMap

This is a list of railway lines that are regularly operated seasonally or on certain days of the week as a museum railway or museum tram and whose infrastructure is maintained primarily for this purpose.

Explanations

Not included in the list are:

• pure railway or tram museums without their own routes
• Museum railway associations that carry out special trips, but not regular trips on one or more specific routes
• Railways that run in regular daily operation with steam locomotives or other older vehicles.

→ The list does not claim to be complete, please complete if necessary!
