We need your help!

The Rochester & Genesee Valley Railroad Museum welcomes anyone interested in volunteering for our museum. From maintaining our fleet of historic trains, to keeping our buildings and grounds in top condition, to hosting and operating our train rides, there’s something for every interest and skill level. Training is also available for our fleet of heavy machinery and tools, just ask.
