Welcome to the Railroad Museum of New England! We are a not-for-profit educational and historical organization whose mission is to tell the story of the region’s rich railroad heritage through our educational exhibits and the operation of scenic and historical train rides on the Naugatuck Railroad.

VOLUNTEER

The RMNE welcomes anyone who is interested in volunteering to help preserve the railroad heritage of our region. Our exceptional volunteers are what make our museum great!

DONATE

Help preserve New England’s railroad heritage! Although we rely on our dedicated volunteers for labor, our operating expenses (like fuel and parts) are always a concern.
