}}Bulawayo Railway Museum (est. 1972) is a railway museum located at Bulawayo railway station in Zimbabwe, that houses several exhibitions on the history of the railway system in Zimbabwe, formerly Rhodesia.[1][2] Its oldest exhibits date back to 1897,[3] and include Cecil Rhodes' personal railway coach.[4]

The museum is owned by NRZ.[5] Due to the severe shortage of rolling stock, some steam locomotives in the museum have, in the past, been refurbished and returned to service.[6]

Exhibits include:

  • No. 115 — 9B class built by North British Locomotive Company (21478 of 1917)
  • No. 127 — 11th class built by Montreal Locomotive Works (159119 of 1918)
  • No. 330 — 19th class built by Henschel (27400 of 1952)
  • No. 1200 — DE2 class diesel – built by English Electric in 1955
