Renew Your Membership
Your membership in the Watauga Valley Railroad Historical Society & Museum is more than a name on a roster - it is active support for preserving and operating authentic historic railroad equipment in our region. Because of members like you, vintage coaches remain in service, excursions continue to roll, and the Chuckey Depot stays open as a living piece of rail history.
Renewing your membership keeps that work moving forward.
It ensures you continue receiving our monthly “Whistle Stop” newsletter, filled with historical archives, restoration updates, excursion news, and firsthand reports of local rail activity. It keeps you connected to our monthly meetings, special programs, and fellowship with others who share your passion for railroad preservation. And it sustains the hands-on restoration efforts that make our cars respected throughout the railroad historical community.
Preservation is not a one-time project. Vintage equipment requires ongoing maintenance, inspections, and care. Facilities require upkeep. Programs require coordination. Renewal provides the steady foundation that allows us to plan confidently for the year ahead.
If you have enjoyed being part of our mission - the excursions, the fellowship, the shared history, the smell of creosote and steel - we invite you to renew today and continue the journey with us.
