History

Founded as a result of Brunswick's 75th anniversary celebration, the "Diamond Jubilee", the Brunswick Potomac foundation held festivals in its early years, celebrating the town's rich transportation and natural histories. After purchasing a building in 1974, the Brunswick Railroad Museum has served the community in many ways, and has attracted visitors from all around the world, and attempting to keep its small-town-museum feel while constantly integrating new methods and technologies into our exhibits and archives.

Artifact Collections

At our facility, we accept donations of artifacts both relating to important aspects of the history of the town of Brunswick, as well as the history of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad and its influence on its employees and the people in the towns it served.
