VOLUNTEER

Our museum has many ongoing projects. We have a job for everyone!

 

In our Lee Tillotson Conservation and Restoration Center, we have room to work on two railroad cars at a time.

 

The grounds need help to preserve and improve our landscaping, and there is always track work and maintenance, as well. If you love rail history, you can bring your passion to life by working in our library, or by researching special projects. Our volunteers make a visit to the Inland Northwest Rail Museum a fun and memorable experience.

​

Specific projects we need help with include: our 2-foot train ride, gift shop, restoration facility, parade train, mechanics, landscaping and more. In addition, we have special events throughout the year that require extra help, such as Opening Weekend, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Halloween, Senior Day, Christmas, and school events.

​

If you like railroad history, you can become a docent (guide) helping to share the stories of our collection, museum train and railroad history in the Inland Northwest. The are even opportunities to speak to regional groups about railroad history and the museum. We try to match your interests to museum activities, and best of all, it’s a lot of fun!

​

Coming soon, you can even volunteer to assist with our train rides as a conductor, brakeman, docent or even apply your acting skills as a train robber.
