After walking around and photographing across the highway at the Strasburg Railroad on a very cold and windy morning, I decided to warm myself up and visit the Pennsylvania Railroad Museum here in Strasburg.
I went inside the front door, paid my fare and went inside the Hall of Railroading to start my tour.

General views from the bridge. I wanted to go outside to see the rest of their collection but the door was locked. I went back up to the front and was told the person who mans that door was on his way there. I went in search of him.
On the way there, here is the LM&WP Railbus 20. No one was at that door so I walked all the way back up front where in the lobby I found the door man. we walked back through the museum and he let me go outside.
