Volunteering |
Rockhill Trolley Museum members are cordially invited (and heartily encouraged) to volunteer a bit of time at the Museum. Virtually every job done at the museum is done by volunteers, and your help is needed!
Volunteer Scenes
| At right, Rockhill volunteers build new track with the help of work car C-64, which is well-equipped with an air compressor, arc welder, generator, track tools, and cutting equipment. |  |
 |
Our volunteers spent hundreds of hours repainting the East Broad Top RR's M-7 diesel (shown at left). Rockhill volunteers provide most of the maintenance of EBT's gas and diesel equipment. |
| At right, most of the Rockhill work fleet is shown, including car C-64, our model 30 Burro crane, Bobcat skid loader, Brookville gas locomotive, and M-100 gang car. While railroad work is never easy, tools like these make it much more tolerable! |  |
Volunteers Needed!
Just a few of the areas where you can make a difference are:
- trolley passenger operations
- track construction and maintenance
- trolley maintenance and restoration
- museum store staff
- landscaping
- museum business
Our museum provides comfortable facilities, with a lunchroom, bathrooms, showers, heating and air conditioning, and lots of good companionship. Overnight accommodations can be arranged for volunteers traveling from out of the area.
Our shop facilities are also well-equipped with woodworking and metalworking tools, and capabilities for heavy mechanical repairs and restorations.
Be assured that we are not obsessed with work! Work is done at a pace comfortable to everyone involved and is almost always punctuated by frequent "hot-air breaks". If you would like to volunteer, please contact us
Please Note: Although we have an excellent safety record, our insurance provider requires our volunteers to be Rockhill Trolley Museum members and be covered by accident insurance. Minors are required to have parental approval and supervision while volunteering.
