Membership

Become a Member of the Bullthistle Model Railroad Society

We welcome and encourage anyone who has an interest in railroads, both model and/or full size, to join us. If you would like to support the Bullthistle Model Railroad Society’s mission of preserving our community’s railroad heritage, we offer meetings and work sessions that you are invited to participate in.

We are an independent organization and have no affiliation with any other national or local group. As such, we appreciate your involvement and support of the museum.

Join Us For a Meeting or Work Session

We have work sessions for society members to work on displays and building projects. If there is a session scheduled outside the usual time and place, we contact people either by telephone or email with the pertinent information – Make sure you get on our notification list to insure you are notified of upcoming events.

Everyone is welcome! If you would like more information, please feel free to contact us or come to one of our meetings and meet the people in our organization. You are welcome to just sit back, watch and then judge for yourself.

Anyone with an interest in railroads is welcome to join us!
