Thomaston Station was built in 1881 by the original Naugatuck Railroad, and is now home to the Railroad Museum of New England.
Our beautiful Victorian station was built in 1881 by the original Naugatuck Railroad to serve the growing community of Thomaston. Passengers last used the station in 1958, and after years of neglect the station later fell victim to a fire set by vandals in 1993. Since operations on the new Naugatuck Railroad commenced in 1996, our volunteers have cleaned and stabilized the structure in preparation for a full restoration. With your support, we can meet our goal of restoring Thomaston as a complete and functional railroad station of the 1950’s.
All train rides on the Naugatuck Railroad arrive and depart from Thomaston Station. Ticket office and gift shop located inside. Restroom facilities available.
