The North Alabama Railroad Museum is located in north Alabama just east of the city of Huntsville in the Chase community. (694 Chase Road) Local traffic may elect to take Meridian Street north to Alabama A&M University and then turn right onto Chase road. For visitors traveling from out of town, the major highway leading to the museum is U.S. Highway 72, which runs west and east between Memphis and Chattanooga. U.S. Highway 72 can also be reached by taking Interstate Spur I-565 east through Huntsville.

Highway 72 and Moores Mill Road, take Moores Mill Road north for a distance of .9 mile to Chase Road (you will cross two sets of railroad tracks, please watch for trains).
