Located on the Ft. Eustis military base off I-64 in Virginia and comprised of a 50,000 sq.-ft. facility surrounded by four vehicle display "pavilions," the U.S. Army Transportation Museum provides a giant visual tableau of the Army's transportation history, from horse-drawn wagons used in the Revolutionary war on up to the M915A1 6x4 military Class 8 tractor and M-1114 up-armored Humvee being used by today's mechanized units.
