Visit the Forney Museum With Your Library Card!

The Forney Museum of Transportation has joined our museum and cultural pass program! 

The Forney Museum of Transportation has a one-of-a-kind collection of over 600 artifacts relating to historical transportation. It began 60 years ago with a single 1921 Kissel, but soon expanded to include vehicles of all kinds. Today it includes not just vehicles, but also buggies, motorcycles, steam locomotives, aircraft, carriages, rail equipment, fire apparatus, public transportation, sleighs, bicycles, toys & diecast models, vintage apparel and much, much more!

The museum collection highlights include: Union Pacific 'Big Boy' Steam Locomotive #4005, Amelia Earhart's 1923 Kissel 'Gold Bug', Forney Locomotive, Colorado & Southern Caboose, 1923 Hispano-Suiza, 1913-53 Indian Motorcycle Collection, Denver & Rio Grande Dining Car, Stutz Fire Engine, 1888 Denver Cable Car, 1923 Case Steam Tractor, 1817 Draisenne Bicycle, and a 500 Piece Matchbox Collection.

Denver Public Library’s museum and cultural pass program is designed to give library card holders who might not otherwise visit cultural institutions in the greater Denver area the chance to visit nearby museums and cultural institutions at no charge. Free passes may be booked online up to 30 days in advance of your visit.  A permanent DPL library card in good standing is required.
