I hear the train a rolling. It's coming around the bend...

Thank you to our great model layout volunteers.

The footage above, shot by Black Hills Fox, is from a 2012 Black Hills Railway Society Fall  Model Train Show. It showcases the amazing talent of our numerous volunteers that keep The South Dakota State Railroad Museum track going. The men volunteer there time, energy and money to help keep the trains rollin' along on Dakota Junction. 
I know if it were up to me, Erica the Administrative Assistant, to keep these trains up to par our customers would not get much of a show. Perhaps you, like me, love the model train layout but don't have the skills to donate. Did you know you can donate specifically to keep Dakota Junction looker her best? Just like cars need patience and regular tune-ups so too does out layout. If you love model trains as much as our volunteers, but don't have the time or the skills to help, why not give a donation to help with yearly repairs and upgrades? Or perhaps donate a locomotive or train car in a family member's name?

Call 605-574-9000 and see how you can help keep the trains a rollin'!

With a new season comes a new exhibit!

Just as trains played a role in our Nation's history, so too have they played a starring role in the film industry. Stop in and see our new section fully dedicated to trains in Hollywood and even watch clips from some of your favorite train movies!
