Help
the Museum to preserve the artifacts that detail the history of
Railroading. Your donation will serve to assist us in restoring and
operating the
vast range of historic equipment. Your donation will also help in
keeping our admission and train ride prices low so that all segments of
the community might be able to experience the rich rail history of
South Florida.
The
Gold Coast Railroad Museum is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit and
donations are tax-deductible to the fullest extent as allowed by
law.
Help
the Museum by
Shopping
Do
you shop online
often? You can shop online at your favorite
retailers and a portion of their profits is donated back to the Gold
Coast Railroad Museum. Using this service costs you nothing, but will
reward the Museum with needed donations to help keep progress rolling.
