After 30 wonderful years,  the Richmond Railroad Museum and the Old Dominion Chapter have run our final excursion trips from Dillwyn, Va. Our host railroad did not renew our contract for 2023.

However, the Richmond Railroad Museum is joining forces with the Military Railroad Society at Fort Eustis, Va. to offer train trips this year. Our passenger cars have already been moved to the base in preparation for the excursions.

We expect to share a schedule of trains later this summer which will also include the famous Santa Express holiday tradition. See you soon!
