LOCATION
Why is Railroaders Memorial Museum said to be haunted?
The museum occupies the Master Mechanics Building, raised by the Pennsylvania Railroad in 1882 at the heart of the Altoona Works, once the largest railroad manufacturing complex in the world and the workplace of tens of thousands of mechanics, boilermakers and engineers. Opened as a museum in 1980 to preserve that industrial heritage, staff and volunteers have long described machinery sounds echoing through empty exhibit halls after closing, along with footsteps in the old upstairs drafting rooms where Pennsylvania Railroad engineers once designed locomotives. Some attribute the phenomena to workers who died in accidents during the Works' operating decades, when injury was a routine hazard of railroad manufacturing. The museum leans into the history rather than the hauntings, but staff still trade stories after the lights go down.
