East Troy Electric Railroad Museum

East Troy Electric Railroad Museum

The East Troy Electric Railroad Museum is a railroad museum located in East Troy, Wisconsin.

In addition to static displays, the museum operates a heritage railroad. Several vintage trolley cars that once ran on the city and suburban lines of Milwaukee are now operated over seven miles of former Milwaukee Electric Railway and Light Company tracks that were originally built in 1907. This line connects to the Canadian National Railway (formerly Wisconsin Central) in Mukwonago, Wisconsin, where some light freight is interchanged for industries using access to the museum's trackage.
