ABOUT EVERETT RAILROAD HERITAGE ASSOCIATION
Everett Railroad Heritage Association Story
We are the Everett Railroad Heritage Association. As such, we are public facing and obliged to tell the story of how three continental railways converged in Everett. The railroads, especially the Great Northern Railway, serviced one of the world’s great mill towns for roughly 80 years.
We tell this story with a large switching and mainline layout, visuals, video simulations and models of the city’s iconic structures. We have an abundance of resources – historians, rail veterans and rail buffs, photos, maps, books, magazines, railroad historical societies.
​
At this time, out dedicated members are diligently working on constructing our large display. Please follow along on our Facebook page for the most up to date information and updates on our progress.

WHAT’S HAPPENING
News & Events
Open House
We intend to host open houses with running trains to allow the public to move through and see the display and learn more about railroad heritage in Everett. These are times that you can get a good overview of the layout and see trains run around the different scenes on the layout.
PRIVATE EVENING TOUR
For those that want a much more detailed look at the layout, or just want to see and learn more, we will offer opportunities for smaller groups or individuals to check out our display and talk to the Association members to learn even more than you might see during our open house events.
Local History Come to Life
Model Trains, More Than a Hobby
Model trains bring a unique aspect to an association dedicated to remembering and representing the heritage of local history. It affords the opportunity to give a physical representation of a by-gone era that actually moves and operates! Model trains unite all generations and captivate the interest to learn more and explore!
