Have you ever wanted to work on railroad equipment, restore a locomotive or railcar, or learn the ins and outs of everyday railroad equipment? The mechanical department is right up your alley! Members of the mechanical department are responsible for keeping our vast collection of operational equipment running and in top working order. Under the close guidance of our experienced mechanical team, anyone can lend a hand in the monumental task of keeping our railroad running no matter how much mechanical know-how you might have. The mechanical department also oversees the restoration of equipment we are trying to get back into service. Be advised: you WILL get dirty!.
You can help us keep our equipment in tip top shape. There are many jobs ranging from keeping our equipment clean, to doing required maintenance, to keeping our grounds clean and trimmed. You will work with a project manager who will assign various jobs around the railroad. If you are not interested in working on the train crew, but still want to learn about the equipment, this option might be best for you.
