Our Museum
The Port Moody Station, built-in 1908, was the second railway station built in the area. The first was the 1882 Western Terminus Station which was demolished in 1961.
The museum is owned and operated by the Port Moody Heritage Society.
The station, designed to be a live-in unit, consists of two floors and a basement. The main floor is accessible to the public as the main display area; the top floor is being used for administration and the basement is collection storage and washrooms.
The museum features the 1908 station building, a 1921 railcar, a World War 1 outdoor trench display, a meditation garden and a CP railway garden.
The museum offers a wide variety of education programs, currently, our educational programs are offered virtually.

Covid-19 Journal
The Port Moody Station Museum is inviting you to document events, pictures and thoughts during the Covid-19 pandemic. During these unprecedented times, events around the world and the nation must be documented on a local and individual level. Personal correspondence offers an intimate glimpse of the world that mediums like newspapers and press releases cannot capture.
Port Moody Men's Shed
Men’s Shed societies started in Australia and New Zealand in the 1990s to provide men a place to commune with each other as they kept their hands busy with handyman projects.
The mental health benefits of mentorship and support they provided quickly spread worldwide. Port Moody now has a Men's shed operating out of the Port Moody Station Museum
IOCO 100
To commemorate the 100th Anniversary of the Ioco town site the Port Moody Heritage Society has created the Ioco memory book - which you can find here.
