Industrial Railways

Our OVCC members passion began with coal & the rail haulage systems.  Researching rail haulage equipment the focus to preserve INDUSTRIAL RAILWAY equipment became eminent.  We have traveled across the United States documenting & preserving equipment.  Below you can get an education on other types of rail systems that help build America and transport our raw materials.  Our focus has been narrow gauge but there are some standard gauge railways listed.
