About

There are projects and positions for any skill level or interest. Volunteers can learn everything from the techniques required to repair historic railcars to how to safely operate a 113-ton steam locomotive! The Sumpter Valley Railroad is a fun and interesting place to volunteer, and whether you love trains, history, preservation, or just enjoy helping out and making a difference, we’re ready to welcome you aboard! All ages are welcome to sign up, though you must be 18 or older to work on the trains or operate equipment.
