Colorado’s largest railroad museum is looking for volunteers who are interested in helping guests learn about the fascinating and important roles that railroads have played (and continue to play) in the history and development of the Centennial State.
Located in beautiful Clear Creek Valley near Golden, just 12 miles west of downtown Denver, the Colorado Railroad Museum proudly features a team of 300 volunteers who participate in railroad operation and maintenance, educational programs, special events staffing, enhancing the visitor experience and many other unique roles.
Volunteers enjoy many fun and exciting opportunities. Help run large events like Day Out with Thomas™ and THE POLAR EXPRESS™ Train Ride. Work behind the scenes on new exhibits, inspire school kids to learn about railroad history, and educate visitors through unique offerings including turntable demonstrations, diesel engine simulations, crafts and interpretive stations. No prior railroad experience is necessary. Volunteers attend orientation classes and receive on-the-job training, then go on to help visitors have fun while learning about Colorado’s fascinating railroad history.
