Mission

The Trust is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization and donations to it are tax-deductible. We seek your support in pursuing our goal to establish a dedicated tourist railroad based on the Colebrookdale Railroad. Among the Trust's short- and long-term objectives toward that goal:

-Completion of an implementation plan
-Acquisition and restoration of historic passenger equipment of the 1900-1916 era
-Construction of passenger facilities in Boyertown and Pottstown
-Integration of passenger service with local events and attractions
-Provision of dining and lounge, and open car service on Colebrookdale trains
-Operation of a steam locomotive
-Assist the County of Berks and the designated freight operator in raising funds to maintain and preserve the line

Additionally, the Trust may assist in the operation of a number of trial-run excursions along the line in concert with the designated operator, the Eastern Berks Gateway Railroad.
