Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

Model Railroading is a universal and all encompassing lifestyle. It is much more than a hobby. It brings people together to help build things. It requires lots of planning,  thinking, developing, teamwork, leadership. And it teaches a lot about those same things. But most of all it develops comradery and long lasting friendships. It gets groups of people together who have a common purpose - to build something great, something they can be proud of.  And they can continue to operate on it and work on it for years. We don't care what color people are or where they're from or whether they're big, wide, tall, short, or disabled. We are all equal in our excitement about model trains. We all can't wait until we can get together again to run trains, to talk about trains and to tell other people about trains.

Our focus is always about having fun and learning more about this fantastic hobby of ours. We are not concerned about religion or politics, or whether one person has more than another. We are concerned about helping each other, providing support for each other, and about working together. 

And so we pledge to anyone who comes into our museum, whether they be a volunteer, an operator, a worker, a child, or adult, there will be no discrimination of any kind for any reason. We are committed to this policy and will not deter from it for the life of the organization. 

If anyone finds or discovers any instance of discrimination in our Museum, it should be immediately reported to management and proper action will be taken. Thank you all for supporting us in our effort to make this a truly all-inclusive community endeavor.

The Birth of Virginia Beach

Hist-VB

We have created and published a new historical document on the Birth of Virginia Beach. This has been written by our historian Warren Leister after researching the era and the people involved for several years. Excepts have been published here in our newsletter previously, but the information is now available all together in a 99 page document that you can purchase in our store. It factually explores the events, the dedicated people and the interesting culture in which they lived. Pick up your copy today!
