The construction of the Gemas Railway Museum is currently being done in stages by the Tampin District Council (MDT) based on a mutual agreement between the Railway Asset Corporation (RAC) and Keretapi Tanah Melayu Berhad (KTMB).

Negri Sembilan Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Aminuddin Harun said the Gemas Small District Office received an allocation of RM490,000 from the Ministry of Tourism, Arts and Culture (MOTAC) last year to turn the old Gemas railway station into a museum.
