Volunteering at the Yass Railway Museum is a rewarding way to immerse yourself in history and contribute to the preservation of Australia's rich railway heritage.

Whether you're interested in mechanical work, carpentry, event planning, or even guiding tours, there are numerous opportunities to develop new skills and gain hands-on experience. We work to connect our volunteers with their area of strength and interest, but are also happy to help build skills and knowledge.
