Our Challenge

Operating and preserving locomotives or equipment comes at a high cost. It is our mission to keep these historic rolling down the track, but we can't do it alone! As with any machine parts wear out or break and we can't call on the Pullman Company, General Electric, ALCO or others to get their Original Equipment Manufacturing. This means we have to fabricate many of the parts ourselves or have them specially made for us. We rely on donors, volunteers and private individuals to help us make these engineering marvels modern.

Why put so much effort into these old locomotives?


Our locomotive fleet is one of a kind. Here original steam locomotives purchased for the railroad over a century ago work side by side with first generation diesel locomotives in the original enginehouse, on the original tracks, operating like they did when they were first brought here. It is the mission of the NNRy museum to continue to operate these as a living monument to the hardworking men and women that came before us.

Each historic piece has its own set of challenges.
