Mission Statement
Friends of the Nevada Southern Railway, Inc. support the Nevada State Railroad Museum at Boulder City, NV through staffing, docent presentations, maintenance of and operation of railroad equipment and restoration of historic railroad equipment, all to the education and benefit of the public and Museum visitors.
Description
The Friends of the Nevada Southern railway are the lifeblood of the museum operations in Boulder City. The Friends run the locomotives, maintain the equipment, create community opprotunities, and help create new exhibits and attractions on site. Whenever one visits the museum, more often than not the public only sees our volunteer staff. The organization had its foundation in 2007, but members have been working with museum staff since the museum's conception in 1985! We love the opprotunity to help preserve Nevada's railroading history, and welcome those who wish to join us!
