Members Judi and John Dauphin and son Matthew were caught installing one of several ties they purchased with their names engraved on them. Judi recently became a qualified Diesel Engineer, John is our Trackmaster and a Steam Engineer and Matthew volunteers as a Museum Display Modeler working with the HO and G-Scale train layouts.

Buy a Tie

Riverside & Great Northern Railway is undertaking a $50,000 capital campaign to upgrade our roadbed. Key to this project is the Buy a Tie program, where our goal is to replace 6,000 older wooden railroad ties with new wooden ties as needed.

For a $100 tax deductible donation, your name will be engraved in a tie used in the roadbed rehabilitation.

Make a lasting mark and preserve railroad history in the process. Download our Buy a Tie Order Form and order your tie today!
