Whether you have a family railroad story, time to give, or want to help make this happen financially — there's a place for you in this project.
Every contribution — whether it's a story, a few hours, or financial support — moves us closer to opening day.
Do you have family railroad memories, old photographs, or documents from the Texas Panhandle's rail era? Your stories and artifacts are what will make this museum authentic. We're collecting oral histories, images, and objects from the community.
Members get early event access, a voice in shaping how the museum tells Amarillo's story, and the satisfaction of preserving heritage that matters. Multiple tiers available for individuals, families, and organizations.
Every dollar moves the restoration forward. The Santa Fe Historical Railway Museum is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit — your gift is tax-deductible. One-time and recurring options available.
Businesses, civic organizations, and cultural institutions can partner with us to support the restoration and build something lasting for the Amarillo community. Multiple partnership levels available.
The Amarillo Depot isn't being built by outsiders. It's being built by the people who know this history best — because they lived it.
When decision-makers see a community that's organized and invested, they fund projects. Your membership, your donation, your shared story, your presence at events — each one is a signal that Amarillo wants this and is willing to make it happen.
Get stories, event announcements, restoration updates, and opportunities to participate — delivered to your inbox. We send updates once or twice a month, never more.
You can also follow us on social media for daily history, community spotlights, and behind-the-scenes looks at the restoration work.
