Welcome to the collections of the Toledo, Lake Erie & Western Railway and Museum. We are dedicated to preserving the rich railroading heritage for future generations.
To preserve examples of railroad transportation to educate the public in the role railroads have played in our economy and in society, with a focus on railroads in northwest Ohio. This is done through interpretive displays and providing a rail ride experience on our 10-mile line.
Our mission drives everything we do. We place special emphasis on artifacts connected to the historic Clover Leaf Route (Toledo, St. Louis & Western Railway) during its most active years, while also preserving other significant pieces from local and regional railroading history.
