Arizona is the state where a family can still board a train in Williams and step off at the South Rim of the Grand Canyon, on the line the Santa Fe finished in 1901. This page is our guide to train museums by state zoomed in on Arizona: 11 museums, rides and depots in 10 towns, from Kingman on Route 66 to Benson in Cochise County. Type your town into the finder to see what is closest.
The state splits neatly by season. Down in the desert, the volunteer yards and trolley museums in Chandler, Phoenix and Tucson open in the cooler months and rest in the summer heat, while the big excursion trains in Williams and Clarkdale run all year. McCormick-Stillman Railroad Park in Scottsdale is the easy everyday choice, open 363 days a year with $3 train rides.
Arizona's rail story is also a copper story and a streetcar story, so expect mine locomotives, smelter engines, Birney trolleys and a streetcar from Kyoto alongside the main line steam engines.

Big engines, little legs. Bring Rally along.
In Rally Takes the Train, a corgi's little legs can't manage the big train stairs, so Dad gives him a boost. It takes about five minutes to read, a good fit for the drive to an Arizona train museum.

How the railroad built desert Arizona
The railroad reached Tucson in March 1880, and towns along the line changed almost overnight. Kingman's first station was a boxcar in 1883, and two wooden depots there burned before the Santa Fe built one of reinforced concrete in 1907. In Benson, the town grew as a stop on the Southern Pacific. Up north, the Santa Fe pushed a branch from Williams to the Grand Canyon in 1901, turning a remote canyon into a place families could reach by train.
Copper kept the rails busy. Jerome's mines drew a town of more than 15,000 people, and short lines like the United Verde & Pacific and the Verde Valley Railway hauled ore through the hills. Magma Arizona Railroad Engine No. 6 spent 38 years carrying copper ore between Superior and Magma. In Phoenix, a mule-drawn streetcar started rolling on Washington Street in 1887, and by 1929 the city's cars carried more than 6.6 million riders before a 1947 barn fire ended the system.
Each museum holds a piece of that story. The Southern Arizona Transportation Museum tells how the 1880 arrival remade Tucson, and the Kingman Railroad Museum fills the fireproof 1907 depot. Copper country equipment fills the yard at the Arizona Railway Museum, the Verde Canyon Railroad rides the old copper route, and the Grand Canyon Railway still runs the 1901 line. For streetcars, see the Phoenix Trolley Museum and Old Pueblo Trolley.
Arizona train day trips
Trip 1
East Valley weekend: rail yard and gold town
- Arizona Railway MuseumChandler
- Superstition Scenic Narrow Gauge RailroadApache Junction
Start at the Arizona Railway Museum in Chandler when it opens at 10 am on a cool-season weekend and climb through the Santa Fe passenger cars. Then drive about 24 miles to Goldfield Ghost Town for the 20-minute narrow gauge loop, which runs until 5 pm. Bring water and hats for both, since each stop is mostly outdoors.
Trip 2
Tucson trolleys and a steam engine
- Southern Arizona Transportation MuseumTucson
- Old Pueblo TrolleySouth Tucson
The Southern Arizona Transportation Museum and Old Pueblo Trolley are about 2 miles apart, and Old Pueblo Trolley's volunteers run both. A Saturday works well, since Old Pueblo Trolley opens Monday, Wednesday and Saturday from 10 am to 3 pm. Call the depot museum first to confirm its hours.
Trip 3
Scottsdale rides and Phoenix streetcars
- McCormick-Stillman Railroad ParkScottsdale
- Phoenix Trolley MuseumPhoenix
On a Saturday between October and May, pair a morning of train and carousel rides at McCormick-Stillman Railroad Park with the Phoenix Trolley Museum, about 11 miles away and open 11 am to 3 pm. Little ones get their rides first, then older kids can see Birney car No. 116 and hear the Saturday Trolley Talks.
Good to know before an Arizona train outing
- Heat shapes the calendar: the Arizona Railway Museum closes June through August, and the Phoenix Trolley Museum opens only on Saturdays from October to May.
- At McCormick-Stillman Railroad Park, the railroad museum building closes June through September and the Pullman cars close in October, but the rides run year-round.
- The Arizona Railway Museum yard is crushed rock with no shade cover, which is hard on strollers, and the passenger cars are reached by their original steps.
- On the Grand Canyon Railway, Luxury Dome, Luxury Parlor and some First Class cars are for ages 16 and up, so families usually book Coach or First Class.
- For the Verde Canyon Railroad, arrive 1.5 hours before departure, bring one bag no bigger than a backpack and without wheels, and leave pets at home.
- Kingman Railroad Museum hours depend on volunteers, so call (928) 753-7995 before a special trip, and check its live rail cameras to catch a passing train.
- Old Pueblo Trolley is a working shop, so ask staff where kids may walk and what they can touch.
Holiday trains and seasonal days at Arizona museums
Holiday trains are a big part of rail season in Arizona. The Grand Canyon Railway runs The Polar Express from Williams in the holiday season, and the Verde Canyon Railroad offers The Magical Christmas Journey from Clarkdale; our Arizona Christmas train guide rounds up dates and booking tips. For Halloween, McCormick-Stillman Railroad Park in Scottsdale hosts Spook-Track-Ula, and you can find more costume-friendly rides in our Halloween train rides in Arizona roundup. Cooler months also bring the Fall Rail Festival and Arizona Railway Day at the Arizona Railway Museum, and the Silver Spike Festival each March in Tucson.
Train museums in states next door
From Flagstaff, it is about 4 hours 15 minutes to Boulder City, where the Nevada State Railroad Museum runs 45-minute weekend train rides on the old Boulder City Branch Line; see our Nevada train museums page. Heading east, Albuquerque is about 6 hours 25 minutes from Flagstaff, and the WHEELS Museum fills the old Santa Fe Storehouse at the Albuquerque Rail Yards, one of the stops on our New Mexico train museums page. From Phoenix, plan about 6 hours 35 minutes to Campo, east of San Diego, where the Pacific Southwest Railway Museum runs vintage trains from a 1916 depot; more on our California train museums page.
A note from Kelsey

Rally is our corgi, and in the book he rides the Pacific Surfliner from San Diego with Mom and Dad. The moment I love most is the tunnel: everything goes dark, then a big bright light and the whole car cheers. When I read that Arizona has a train that rolls through a 734-foot tunnel in a red-rock canyon, I pictured Rally pressing his nose to the glass. My mom dreamed up his story before she passed in 2021, and you can read about her on our story page. If your kids want to color their own tunnel scene before a ride, our free train coloring pages are a good place to start.
A train book for the drive
Amtrak passengers still wait inside the historic depots in Tucson and Kingman, so if you would like to arrive by rail, start with our family guides to the Sunset Limited and the Southwest Chief.

Is there a train museum in Flagstaff?
None of the museums on this page is in Flagstaff itself, but two big train rides are close. The Grand Canyon Railway leaves Williams, about 45 minutes west of Flagstaff by car, for the South Rim. The Verde Canyon Railroad boards in Clarkdale, roughly an hour away. In Williams, you can also see the Arizona State Railroad Museum foundation's boxcar at Glassburn Park on Route 66.

What train attractions are in Williams, Arizona?
Williams is home to the Grand Canyon Railway, which leaves the 1908 Williams Depot daily for the South Rim of the Grand Canyon.

Its collection has no regular hours yet, but its cornerstone boxcar is on view at Glassburn Park along Route 66.
How long is the Grand Canyon Railway trip?
Each way takes about 2 hours and 15 minutes, and the train gives you more than three hours at the South Rim before heading back. Plan on about 8 hours for the whole day. The line runs roughly 64 miles from Williams, climbing from high desert into ponderosa pine forest, and the trip is 45 minutes faster than the first run in 1901.
What will kids see on the Verde Canyon Railroad?
Kids ride through red-rock Verde Canyon from Clarkdale to Perkinsville and back, a 40-mile round trip of about four hours. The highlight is a 734-foot tunnel carved through solid rock more than a century ago. Open-air viewing cars are good for spotting bald eagles, great blue herons and deer, and the John Bell Museum at the depot has historic photographs.
When is the Arizona Railway Museum in Chandler open?
The Arizona Railway Museum is open Saturdays and Sundays from 10 am to 4 pm between September 5, 2026 and May 30, 2027. It closes on weekdays and all summer because of the heat. Adults pay $15, children 2 to 12 pay $10, and a family bundle for 2 adults and 3 children costs $40, as of October 2026.

The car is on the National Register and is part of the free Scottsdale Railroad Museum, though the Pullman cars close in October.
Where can I see Southern Pacific locomotive 1673 in Tucson?
Southern Pacific No. 1673 stands outside the Southern Arizona Transportation Museum at the historic depot in downtown Tucson. It is a 2-6-0 Mogul built by the Schenectady Locomotive Works in 1900 and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Tourism listings say it appeared in the 1955 film Oklahoma. Seeing it is free, and trains still pass on the main line nearby.
Does the Grand Canyon Railway run The Polar Express?
Yes, The Polar Express is the Grand Canyon Railway's big holiday event, departing from Williams in the holiday season. It is the railway's big draw for young children. Check the railway's schedule for dates and fares, and book early. In Clarkdale, the Verde Canyon Railroad runs its own holiday trip, The Magical Christmas Journey.
Are there Halloween train events in Arizona?
McCormick-Stillman Railroad Park in Scottsdale hosts Spook-Track-Ula, and the park's train and carousel rides run year-round. Fall is also festival season at the Arizona Railway Museum in Chandler, which holds a Fall Rail Festival after reopening for the cool months. Check each park's calendar for this year's dates, as of October 2026.
When did the railroad come to Tucson?
The first train reached Tucson in March 1880, and the Southern Arizona Transportation Museum tells how that arrival reshaped the town. Each March the museum marks the anniversary with the Silver Spike Festival, which has featured reenactments by descendants of early Tucson pioneers and cavalry band music. The museum also records oral histories from people who lived the railroad era.
Is the Phoenix Trolley Museum open in the summer?
No, the Phoenix Trolley Museum opens on Saturdays from 11 am to 3 pm between October 1 and May 30, plus selected First Friday evenings.

Is the Superstition narrow gauge train at Goldfield good for small children?
Yes, the 20-minute loop is a good length for young kids, and children 4 and under ride free. The train runs on 36-inch narrow gauge track around Goldfield Ghost Town, departing every 35 minutes from 10 am to 5 pm daily. The engineer narrates the history of the town and the Superstition Mountains. Adults pay $12 and kids 5 to 12 pay $8.
Can you ride a trolley at Old Pueblo Trolley in South Tucson?
Rides are not part of a regular visit to Old Pueblo Trolley today. The group ran Tucson's heritage trolley on 4th Avenue from 1993 to 2011, until the city removed the line for its modern streetcar. Its South Tucson operations center now displays and restores the fleet, including an 1886 horsecar and a 1953 Kyoto streetcar, on Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays.
