Located in the Locomotive Park in Kingman, you can visit an authentic relict of the Santa Fe Railway: the steam engine #3759. The locomotive is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. This impressive steam locomotive was built in 1927 as a "mountain type" and later used oil instead of coal. After almost 30 years as a passenger train, it was retired in 1953. It covered the route between Los Angeles and Kansas City. The Locomotive Park was established in 1957 and the AT&SF 3759 was donated to Kingman, as it was an important stop along the railroad.
