Wilmington Railroad Museum
The first batch of 120 bricks has been custom engraved. We will soon begin laying out a brick path in Railroad Heritage Square, leading from the porch to the caboose. This is a continuing program to commemorate your support of the Museum or to remember others, so as you purchase a brick, the walk grows and the Museum improves its programs and services. If you have not purchased a brick yet, please call the Museum at 763-2634 to obtain an order form and make your donation.

Memberships are available at several different levels, but they all demonstrate support for the mission of the Museum and how effectively we tell the story of the railroads and the people who worked on them.
