The Louisiana Steam Train Association (LASTA) is a non-profit organization located in the city of Metairie in Louisiana. The association was founded in 1989 by a group of train enthusiasts who were passionate about preserving and restoring the state's railroad heritage.
The mission of the LASTA is to collect, restore, and operate vintage steam locomotives and other railroad equipment for public education and enjoyment. The association operates a museum, a restoration facility, and a train ride attraction called the "Louisiana Steam Train Experience."
The museum houses a collection of vintage locomotives, railcars, and other railroad artifacts, which are open to the public for tours and educational programs. The restoration facility is where the association's volunteers work on restoring and maintaining the vintage equipment.
