 Spencer
NC is a charming, small town in the northern region of
Rowan County North Carolina. With beautifully manicured
streets and adorable Rowan County homes, Spencer NC is
an ideal place to raise a family. Spencer NC was once a
booming railroad town, serving as a central point
between Washington DC and Atlanta GA. Because of this,
Spencer NC today is a railroad enthusiast’s paradise, as
it is filled with relics of the town’s railroad past.
Spencer NC prides itself on preserving its heritage and it is home to North Carolina’s largest
contiguous historic district and the North Carolina
Transportation Museum. You and your loved ones can spend
the day at the museum and take a ride aboard the on-site
train. The Transportation Museum contains 57 acres of
railroad history along with educational sessions on how
North Carolina’s economy was aided by the railroad
system. Special programs also include the “Tracks of an
Engineer” program where participants have the chance to
not only learn more about safety on the rails, but even
operate a real locomotive! Group opportunities are also
available for school or community groups. With these and
other unique opportunities, any train enthusiast or
history buff will find the Transportation Museum a
fantastic place to visit.
