Cookeville, Tennessee
Located in Cookeville’s historic Westside District, the Cookeville Depot Museum is a treat not just for rail enthusiasts. The building was constructed in 1909 and houses many Tennessee Central Railway artifacts, including a replica of what Cookeville looked like circa 1955, as well as a replica of a coal tipple with a model train loading up with coal. The park-like grounds of the Depot contain a 1913 Baldwin steam engine, a 1920’s classic red caboose, a 1960’s caboose, and two small track cars.
