The Sandy River and Rangeley Lakes Railroad (SRRL) is a historic narrow-gauge railroad located in Phillips, Maine. The railroad was built in the late 19th century to transport goods and people through the Western Maine mountains and forests. The line operated until 1935 and was then dismantled, but it has since been restored as a tourist attraction.

The SRRL features a one-hour scenic train ride through the woods and along the Sandy River. The train consists of vintage rail cars pulled by a steam locomotive. The ride offers stunning views of the surrounding forests and mountains, as well as a glimpse into the history of the region.

The museum houses exhibits on the history of the SRRL, the narrow-gauge railroad industry in Maine, and the region's logging and paper industry.
