Our POMO Museum

The POMO Museum, built-in 1908, was the second railway station built in Port Moody. The first was the 1882 Western Terminus Station which was demolished in 1961.

The museum is owned and operated by the Port Moody
Heritage Society.

The station, designed to be a live-in unit, consists of two floors and a basement. The main floor is accessible to the public as the main display area; the top floor is being used for administration and the basement is collection storage and washrooms.
