Volunteer with the National Railroad Equipment Preservation Foundation

Help preserve historic railroad equipment, support hands-on restoration, and welcome the public into living history.

Volunteers are the backbone of preservation. Whether you have technical experience or simply a willingness to help, there is a place for you here. We offer opportunities in restoration support, events, education, and behind-the-scenes work that keep projects moving forward.

Volunteers of all ages and backgrounds come from around the country, and our supporters include couples, families, railroad fans, retirees, railroad employees, and more.
