The entire Trainmasters' club, its leaders, as well as a large contingent of members' parents participated in a railroad safety course conducted by the Black River and Western Railroad. The certificates that each participant received upon completion of the course, allows any group or individuals from our club to do volunteer work on the BR&WRR property on any agreed to projects.
We welcome requests for other service opportunities. If you or some group or individual that you know has a particular need, you can contact us via e-mail info.trainmasters@sc4‑h.org
