About Us

SinceĀ  we became a registered charity in 1994, the Guelph Historical Railway Association has been working to preserve Guelph’s wonderful railway history. We accomplish this through many ways. One of or main ways is the collecting, restoration and preservation of historical railway artifacts. Our collection ranges from rolling stock, to lanterns, paperwork, hardware and so much more. Another aspect of our work is preserving and archiving historical photographs of Guelph and Canada’s railway history.
