The Museum's first carbarn, the Anson W. Bennett Carhouse, was built in 1997.

Members of the Berea Historical Society's youth group and their advisors visit the Museum and get some "up close and friendly" time with the Cleveland Railway Company crane 0711.

Due to renovation of the Strongsville Old Town Hall, Media Nights will be held at the Bethel Lutheran Church, 7171 Pearl Road in Middleburg Hts through May 2008.   Please visit the   Museum Events   page for more information.

Be sure to stop by our   Museum Store   page. Several new items were added in February.

     Thank you for your interest in the Northern Ohio Railway Museum. The Museum is located at 5515 Buffham Road in Westfield Township, Medina County, Ohio (near Chippewa Lake).  There, on two miles of the historic Cleveland Southwestern Railway, the museum is working to attain its goals to collect, preserve, restore, display and operate streetcars and other railway equipment for use by the public.  We are open for public display Saturdays Spring through Fall.

     To accomplish its goals N.O.R.M. needs your support. You can support the museum in many ways: by contributing toward its projects or by purchasing items from the Museum Store, or you can join as a member. As a member, you will be joining with one-hundred and eighty men and women who are voluntarily building, maintaining, operating and managing the railway museum. Your membership will entitle you and your immediate family to admission to all activities at the museum, reduced fare on fantrips, a ten percent discount at the Museum Store and our bi-monthly newsletter, THE NORTHERN LIGHT. Regular membership will also entitle you to vote at meetings of the membership and in elections. Visit our   Membership   page for more information.

     Please accept this invitation to stop by for a walking tour of our museum or to attend our monthly media nights held the first Friday of each month, Fall to Spring, at 7:30 pm in Strongsville's Old Town Hall at the corner of Routes 42 and 82 in Strongsville, Ohio.  Our meetings are an equal measure of current museum news, entertainment and fellowship. Visit our   Museum Events   page for more information and visit our   Directions to the Museum   page for maps and directions.
