Support the National Railroad Museum
The National Railroad Museum preserves railroad history and inspires lifelong learning through hands-on exhibits, historic locomotives, and educational programs for learners of all ages. Your donation directly supports the preservation work, restoration projects, and community programs that keep that mission moving forward.
As the only Congressionally designated national-status railroad museum in the United States, we receive no federal, state, or local tax support. Every exhibit, every restored piece of rolling stock, and every education program is made possible by admissions, memberships, grants, fundraising events, and the generosity of donors like you.

Where Your Donation Goes
Your gift helps fund:
- Museum operations – keeping our doors open and our exhibits running year-round
- Restoration projects – preserving historic locomotives, railcars and other rolling stock for future generations
- Exhibits and programs – bringing railroad history to life for visitors of all ages
- Education initiatives – including STEM programming and partnerships with area schools serving students with special needs and at-risk youth
Why Museum Support Matters
Museums create connections that a traditional classroom can’t always reach – sparking curiosity, encouraging discovery, and bringing generations together around shared history. At the National Railroad Museum, we believe that preserving the past is how we educate the present and inspire the leaders and thinkers of tomorrow.
