Locomotive Park
Landmark
Open Details
Just across the street from the Route 66 museum is Locomotive Park. The park is dedicated to the hard working railroad companies and trains that contributed so much to the growth of northern Arizona and southern Nevada.
The park is home to the famed Steam Engine #3759. This coal-burning locomotive made ten round trips monthly between Los Angeles and Kansas City and Kingman was where it stopped for a water stop (to replenish water for the steam engine).
It's a one of a kind experience to hop up in the cab of an old steam engine train such as this.
