Communications from the President and Executive Board will primarily be sent by email so we can easily communicate updates and important information without frequently replacing this message. You may also request to join our closed Facebook Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/191426099033529.

Help NSDARW grow by inviting family members and friends who may qualify to join us. The application and instructions are available on the public portion of our website under Membership.

Thank you for your membership and continued support. If you have any questions, suggestions, or comments, please feel free to contact any NSDARW officer.

Our work continues as we preserve and honor the legacy of American railroad workers and their descendants.

Full Steam Ahead,

Kim Huyler Defibaugh, Ed.D.
