The New Brunswick Railway Museum

Baggage Car Project

Over the past few years, the New Brunswick Railway Museum has been refurbishing our CN baggage car #8665. The baggage car served as our ticket office for many years, prior to the construction of the replica Hillsborough station. The intent of this refurbishment is to bring the car back to good order, and to provide additional display space for the Museum.

Undertaking this project would not have been possible without the support of others. The NB Division of the CRHA would like to acknowledge the support of various parties including Heritage Moncton and The New Brunswick Department of Wellness, Culture and Sport. Thanks to all for their support and encouragement.
