## Parking at Maine Narrow Gauge Railroad Museum

The Maine Narrow Gauge Railroad Museum does not offer parking on its premises, so drivers should plan for street parking or a nearby paid lot before arriving at the station (mainenarrowgauge.org). The museum lists 65 Thames Street as its station address and identifies parking around the location as one-hour [free parking](https://www.parksy.com/parking-near-me), metered parking, or day parking at various nearby lots (mainenarrowgauge.org).

Hourly street parking and paid lots are available within a short walking distance of the station (mainenarrowgauge.org). The operator’s parking guidance makes the surrounding public parking options the practical choice for museum visits, rather than looking for an entrance to an on-site car park.

## Busy Parking Times Around the Thames Street Station

Parking demand can be higher when visitors arrive for the daily train ride, because the operator directs visitors to surrounding street spaces and paid lots rather than a dedicated museum car park (mainenarrowgauge.org). The station is at 65 Thames Street, where drivers are sharing nearby spaces with other downtown visitors (mainenarrowgauge.org).

Street parking therefore suits a short stop more naturally than a longer museum visit, while a paid day lot avoids having to move a vehicle after the free period.

## Parksy Parking Spaces 72 Yards From the Museum

Parksy lists four nearby hourly spaces, each 72 yards from the site: a secure and convenient parking lot, a secure and convenient garage, a convenient 24/7 parking lot, and a convenient 24/7 lot in downtown Portland. Each is priced at $8 an hour, giving drivers a close paid option for a visit whose length is uncertain.

Three additional Parksy spaces at the same 72-yard distance are listed by the month: a secure 24/7 gated parking lot, a convenient 24/7 lot in downtown Portland, and a secure 24/7 parking lot in downtown Portland. Each costs $225 a month, making those listings more relevant to regular Portland parking than to a single museum outing.

## Street Parking and Paid Lots Near 65 Thames Street

The operator identifies one-hour free parking around the station, as well as metered parking and day parking at various lots close to 65 Thames Street (mainenarrowgauge.org). These options give visitors a choice between a brief free stop, an hourly street space, and a longer stay in a paid lot.

The museum’s own directions also describe hourly street parking and paid lots as being a short walking distance from the station (mainenarrowgauge.org). The site is 0.8 miles from Portland center, so drivers coming from downtown can compare the nearby street spaces with the lots around the station rather than expecting museum-controlled parking.

## Walking to the Museum From Portland Rail Connections

The station address used by the operator is 65 Thames Street, while the museum address is 79 Munjoy South. Visitors arriving by rail can use the Portland area as their starting point and continue to the waterfront station on foot or by local transport.

The museum is 0.8 miles from Portland center, placing the attraction within the central Portland area. The operator publishes the station phone number as (207) 828-0814, which can help visitors coordinate the final approach when arriving without a car (mainenarrowgauge.org).
