Story

The Yukon Transportation Museum brings to life over 100 years of transportation history in the Yukon. Follow the stories of the early bush pilots as they struggled to make community access easier. Hike the Chilkoot trail alongside the intrepid stampeders as they forged their way by boat, foot and train to make it to the storied riches of Yukon’s Klondike gold fields. Hear the tales of the people that shaped the Alaska Highway, the road still essential to life in Canada’s famous Yukon. At the Yukon Transportation Museum you will see, read, and hear about the rich history of the north through lively stories and the interesting, detailed and surprising size of displays

This is a really excellent museum. Lots of interesting exhibits, both inside the building and out and lots of wonderful old photographs. We really enjoyed talking with some of the museum volunteers...very interesting and very knowledgable.

This museum is really interesting. There is so much history and so many amazing people that have contributed toward the development of the Yukon and you can see how they did it and the machines they used. I liked the big road train outside, it must have been amazing to see it operating back in the day. The displays are well done and the machines are well restored, a credit to the museum. I would like to see it again one day. Souvenirs for sale there.

While the Transportation Museum (YTM) doesn't look very large, there's a lot to see, inside and outside around the property. The small gift shop has some really unique items. Watch for special events - they have some excellent transportation-related events throughout the year.
