About The Museum
Preserving history
one ride at a time!
Our Mission:
To discover, preserve, interpret and share the historical heritage of the roller coaster for present and future generations.
It is the goal of the NRCMA board to become part of an established universal effort to make the public and industry aware of the importance of preserving its heritage. We actively work to protect these artifacts and make them accessible to those who love roller coasters and amusement parks!
In addition, we wish to take the opportunity to preserve an important part of American history, establish a permanent home for memorabilia and to save our amusement park legacy for future generations to enjoy. We will carry the stories of the industry’s rich past, introducing new historic details from lost and forgotten rides, as well as the latest stories on the modern classics.
We hope that you will join us in our effort to save these irreplaceable parts of the attractions industry.
Facility
Our primary home is located in Plainview, Texas
The current 20,000 sq. ft. building sits on five acres of land that is owned by the NRCMA. The latest expansion included a 1,000 sq. ft. climate-controlled room for sensitive artifacts, as well as the Mark Moore Wing, honoring the late founder of Uremet.
