South Hill Model Railroad Museum

About Us:

Located at the corner of South Mecklenburg Avenue and Main Street in the historic South Hill Train Depot, which also houses the South Hill Chamber of Commerce offices. A unique and panoramic display of model trains and authentic model scenery representing periods of the local history. The train museum is located in the rear section of the original freight station of the Depot where all the items that came to South Hill by rail were stored until picked up by farmers, residents and businessmen. You can even visit an authentic caboose located on the Depot grounds. Also in the Depot is a wonderful local wildlife display that was prepared and designed by Mr. Stanton S. Vongrabill, Jr. You can visit with bobcats to bald eagles, hoot owls to woodpeckers, even groundhogs to hawks and buzzards.
