We Need Your Help at the Railroad
Recent storms have left us with a major cleanup challenge at the railroad. Several large trees and countless branches have come down across our tracks, sidings, and operating areas. As you can see from the photos, some sections of the railroad are completely blocked and will require significant effort to clear before we can continue improving and operating the railroad safely.
In addition to removing fallen trees and brush, we also need volunteers to help with:
✅ Cutting grass and trimming weeds throughout the property
✅ Clearing brush along the right-of-way
✅ Hauling limbs and debris to burn or disposal piles
✅ General track and grounds maintenance
Whether you can run a chainsaw, operate a tractor, swing a rake, or simply help move branches, there is a job for everyone. Even a few hours of your time can make a huge difference.
The railroad is built and maintained entirely by volunteers, and projects like this remind us how important our members and friends are. The more hands we have, the faster we can get the railroad back into shape and continue working on all of the exciting improvements planned for this year.
📅 If you can help during our next workday, please come out and join us. If you're unable to attend the scheduled workday but have time during the week, consider organizing a small crew and contacting us to arrange a cleanup session.
Together, we can get the railroad cleared, the grass cut, and keep the trains running!
