Our principle goal is to educate the public on the technology, history, and impact of the railroad industry in and around Central New York state. We do this through the preservation and restoration of railroad equipment and two historic local railroad stations. We also introduce and reinforce such education by fostering interest in model railroading that includes an annual Model Train Fair.
Our stations serve as educational venues and museums, allowing us to display historic artifacts and documents. We advance this through a research library where such documents, photographs, videos, and books are preserved for researchers, students, and Chapter members.
The Chapter also offers educational talks and monthly presentations for our membership and the interested public.
