Transforming the Monkton Station
Museum
Discover the people, places and stories
of the Northern Central Railway.
Railroad & Community
The Northern Central Railway connected Baltimore with the communities, farms, industries, and people of northern Baltimore County. Explore the stories of the towns and people along the line.
History Along the Trail
In 2004, our volunteers created historical signs along the NCR Trail. More than two decades later, we set out to update them—and discovered far more history than the signs could possibly hold.
There was far too much history to fit on the signs.

Monkton Station Story
Built in 1898 and restored as a visitor center and museum in 1989, Monkton Station is now beginning its next chapter.
Museum Transformation
We’re transforming the museum with new exhibits, newly discovered history, and stories that bring the railroad and its communities to life.
History Harvest Days
Help us uncover the history that's still out there. Bring historic photographs, documents and stories to Monkton Station, where we can scan and preserve them while the originals stay with you.
