Featuring Eugene, Medford, and Ashland

The WVMRM is an exhibit with a series of operational realistic miniature representations of the historic Southern Pacific Railroad. The Southern Pacific Railroad paints the backdrop for the history and heritage of the story of Oregon and its "Riches that Ride the Rails". The historical focus is on the Siskiyou line running from Eugene to south of Ashland, Tunnel 13, at the time of transition from steam to diesel engines from 1940s to 1965.
