Pueblo Railway Foundation

The Pueblo Railway Foundation (PRF) is a volunteer-run 501(c)(3) organization based in Pueblo, Colorado, that operates the Pueblo Railway Museum as its primary program. Formed in 2003 to continue and expand the work of the Pueblo Locomotive & Railroad Historical Society, the Foundation preserves rolling stock, artifacts, and local rail history and makes them accessible to the public through museum displays, restoration work, and operating train rides.

PRF emphasizes hands-on historical interpretation and education: it runs public train-ride events, partners with local schools and the public library for tours and programs, and maintains an active restoration program and digital cataloging effort for donated collections. The Foundation minimizes administrative overhead by relying on volunteers and focuses resources on preservation, restoration, and public programming.

In recent years the Foundation has expanded its digital and outreach work (including digitization of large donated collections) and continued a calendar of seasonal public events and community train rides that draw local families, students, and railfans.
