Located next to CSX Railroad, the Hagerstown Roundhouse Museum is devoted to educating the public about the city’s railroad history. Although the original Hagerstown Roundhouse —once a major maintenance facility for the railroads in Western Maryland— was demolished in 1999, the museum displays images of the structure for visitors to view.
