We're seeking folks who love public speaking and are willing to share/brush up on railroad history. Our tour groups range from grade schoolers through seniors. It's about a 90 minute walk through a couple of our buildings and highlighting our unique collection of historic transportation artifacts. Knowing about the WPA, civil rights struggles, the economies of scale offered by railroad is a plus. No worries, we've lots to share and support you with.
