Blue Ridge Chapter NRHS at a glance
-
Our chapter was
established in 1958 with a handful of members.
Today we have more than 75
members from all over
the central Virginia region,
representing a variety of railroad
related interests: history,
preservation, modeling,
and photography.
What we all share in common is a love of
railroading!
- We are a local
chapter of the
National
Railway Historical Society, the
nation's largest railroad historical
society with over 17,000 members in 170
chapters. Read more about the NRHS
here.
- We hold official chapter
meetings once a month and "fun" meetings
every other month. Our members present
a wide variety of
programs highlighting
their personal railroad interests.
Special guests offer lectures and
presentations on interesting historical
and regional aspects of railroading.
Many additional special events
happen throughout the year. See the
Train
Departure Board below.
- We publish a monthly
newsletter, the Blue Ridge
Dispatcher. Each
edition features timely information about
upcoming meetings, communications from
our officers, railroad news,
articles by chapter members,
recent prototype sightings in the region, and much more! Our
newsletter is a great benefit of being
a BRC member. Download recent
Dispatcher issues
