Logo of the Cleburne Railroad MuseumCLEBURNE, Texas — The remodeled and expanded Cleburne Railroad Museum is set to open Jan. 13, the Cleburne Times-Review reports.

The museum traces a railroading history that dates to 1881 and includes more than a century when the Santa Fe Railway was the community’s largest employer, thanks to a major shop facility. The expanded museum includes about 3,400 feet of public space, up from about 1,000 in its earlier form. It includes traditional and interactive exhibits, an extensive model railroad, and a new event space, The Studio, for programs and other events.

More information is available at the museum’s website.
