Southeastern Narrow Gauge & Shortline Museum
From the early 1800s until the mid-20th century, narrow gauge and shortline railroads were crucial in connecting small towns and rural areas to larger cities.

From train rides to guided tours, there is something for everyone at this family-friendly museum. So, whether you are a history buff, a train enthusiast, or simply looking for an enjoyable and educational experience, make sure to add the Southeastern Narrow Gauge & Shortline Museum to your list of must-visit attractions in Newton, IL.
