The Best Friend Train Museum

Charleston played an important role in early rail history, and the Best Friend Train Museum shares that story. It honors the Best Friend of Charleston, the first regularly scheduled passenger train in the U.S., which made its first trip on Christmas Day in 1830. This train changed the way people traveled and did business across the country. Though the original train was destroyed in a boiler explosion, the museum keeps its history alive with exhibits and replicas.
