Welcome and thank you for visiting our website. Milder weather and longer hours of daylight will give us more time to capture today’s moments which will be tomorrow’s history.

We’re very happy to announce the following events that you’re all invited to (more details can be found on the Event Calendar). 

  • April 28 – Member Will Dicke will be sharing a program of his contemporary rail photos.  

  • May 3 – A trip to the Reading Company Railroad Museum in Hamburg, Pennsylvania.

  • May 19 – Vice President Fred Ciocciola will be sharing a program called “Conrail through the Years.”

Our Summer Speaker Series is via Zoom only, with our first virtual meeting in June:

  • June 23 – There will be a group presentation featuring taking the Ferry from Philadelphia to Camden, then taking the train from Camden to Pemberton and points beyond.

We’ll have more meetings and activities. Check out our website, shop in our store, join the Chapter!
