We are a completely volunteer run organization and are always looking for new volunteers to help keep this train rolling. No railroading experience is needed. We have jobs to fit your abilities, skills, and interests. 

Our rail excursion is only one way to experience the St. Louis River Estuary. Check out our Choo Choo Paddle Shuttle for the St Louis River Estuary National Water Trail and hiking and biking on the Waabizheshikana: Marten Trail, too.
