Golra Sharif Railway Museum, situated near the foothills of the Margalla Range in Islamabad, Pakistan, stands as a remarkable repository of the country's railway heritage. Set up in 2003, this museum was established at the Golra Sharif railway station, which itself is a historic site, over a century old. The museum resides at the junction where lines from Peshawar, Kohat, Havelian, and Multan meet, which has been an important railway nexus since the British era. Within its charming colonial structure, visitors can explore various exhibits that include vintage locomotives, carriages, and railway memorabilia. It displays a trove of articles dating back to the times of the British Raj, and offers an insight into the evolution of the railways in the subcontinent. Artefacts such as old tickets, signalling equipment, communication gear, and timepieces tell the story of a bygone era. The outdoor display features a range of steam engines, coaches, and saloons that served various dignitaries. It is a site of pilgrimage for railway enthusiasts and ideal for families and history buffs to glimpse into the railway legacy of Pakistan.
