The Elgin County Railway Museum closed Jan. 7, 2026, due to structural issues, with no reopening date set.
The Elgin County Railway Museum in St. Thomas, Ontario, has temporarily closed due to building-related issues in non-public areas, though public safety was not compromised.
The closure, announced January 7, 2026, affects operations while structural concerns are assessed.
Managed by the Railworks Coalition, the museum—housed in a 1913 historic rail shop and recognized as North America’s oldest continuously operating locomotive repair facility—remains closed to visitors, with only limited staff access allowed.
Officials say the decision prioritizes long-term sustainability and preservation.
Updates are expected by spring 2026, with no reopening date set.
