Membership
If you love model trains, consider becoming a member and get involved!
The Gadsden-Pacific Toy Train Operating Museum is a volunteer driven not-for-profit organization. Our success hinges on the amazing people that share their passion for the craft! We’d love to have you become part of our organization and actively participate in the magic of model trains with other like-minded folks!
What does that look like?
Great question! Membership is $60 per year. We’re very much a “learn by doing” kind of organization, and we want our members to learn how to operate trains, meet other train enthusiasts and discover what train scales appeal to you. This might include maintaining existing model trains and layouts or simply just helping around the facility.
We have two categories: Membership and Support.
The dues for active Members are $60. After one year of regular membership, these Members may vote on museum matters.
Supporters purchase a $40 annual pass, giving them unlimited free admission throughout the year and a 10% discount on gift/hobby shop purchases!
How to Become a Member
All you need to do to become a active member is to visit the museum and talk to active members there, the folks running the trains and standing behind the counters of the Train Store and Gift Shop. They’ll explain how the process works.
Supporters need only stop by the Gift and Hobby Shop at the museum to pick up your $40 annual pass. That’s your ticket to family admissions up to 6 people all season long (September through May) and 10% off any Gift and Hobby Shop purchases!Renewing Members may complete the form below and pay by PayPal. New members need to stop by the Train Store on open Sunday afternoons to complete or turn in their applications.
