Wichita Falls RR Museum (Texas)

I'm almost reluctant to post here because normal discussion seems no longer possible.

A news article says this museum is hitting hard times due to "loss of donor and sponsorship money, fewer grants and family memberships, and an aging volunteer base." I am guessing these are problems that will hit all rail museums in the future that don't have secure funding - such as an endowment.

Looks like the Wichita Falls RR museum has a very nice collection, well displayed in a small space.
