The Tasmanian Transport Museum Society was formed in 1962 and has since established a extensive transport museum in the Hobart suburb of Glenorchy.

The museum is open on Sundays between 1:00pm and 4:00pm (from 11am on train running days). Trains operate on the first and third Sundays of the month (either a steam locomotive hauled train or a diesel railcar set).

The rollingstock collection includes 10 locomotives, 7 carriages, 10 wagons and 3 railmotors. The museum also houses a collection of buses, trolley buses and trams, as well as the restored New Town station building.
