LA GRANGE RAILROAD MUSEUM

LIGHT UP LA GRANGE - DECEMBER 3RD

Santa Clause & free hot chocolate, 6 - 9pm!

We are proud to host Santa Clause and Revival Coffee Company at this year's Light Up La Grange. As always, we are open free to the public from 10am - 3pm and after the parade from 6 - 9pm. Families are invited to start their morning with a special Christmas edition of our Reading by the Rails program from 10am to Noon. In the evening, Santa will be ready to greet visitors and take photos after the parade in the main museum building. Also, Revival Coffee will be in our 1929 dining car serving free hot chocolate!

We're exciting to offer various volunteer opportunities:

Storytelling Tour Guide

We love to have passionate docents to give tours filled with enticing stories through our exhibits and model railroad. Any experience level welcomed, we have guides who are retired railroad engineers to those who just want to come and help the La Grange community. With more guides, we will be able to expand our hours to be open every day and open later.

Model Railroader

We have an active model railroading club that meets weekly. With 4 layouts (1 HO DCC, 2 HO DC, 1 O-scale), there are a lot of opportunities to take scenes to the next level.

Apply today!

We have monthly volunteer training sessions and can connect you to the current members who will connect your interests with our opportunities. We are a growing museum expanding our current offerings and would love anyone who can help us achieve our vision. Please apply on our volunteer application below.
