Hub City Railroad Museum
The Hub City Railroad Museum is housed in the historic Magnolia Street Station. The station was originally built in 1915 and served as a packaging services facility for the Southern Express Company. While the station outlived all the other train station structures on the property, it has seen its share of problems. In 1996 it was damaged by a fire and was most likely headed for demolition. A young man stepped in and through a letter-writing and public awareness campaign, he managed to save the historic building that now houses the museum.
Inside you’ll find a display of items from the rich history of the Hub City. The textile mills, peach industry, and more are represented along with a lot of the actual items from the original train station.
