Niles Depot Museum

The Niles Depot Museum is located in the former passenger and freight depots located in the Niles District of Fremont, California. The museum is operated by the Niles Depot Historical Foundation and features exhibits and artifacts about area railroads, including the early Southern Pacific Railroad and Western Pacific Railroad, and the current Union Pacific Railroad and Amtrak.

The museum is also constructing two model railways of Niles and surrounding areas, which are operated by the Tri-City Society of Model Engineers.

The depot is one of the primary stops for the Niles Canyon Railway, a heritage railroad.[1]
