About the North Texas Chapter
Chapter History & Meetings
Founded and chartered in 1996, the North Texas Chapter is one of the newest chapters of the National Railway Historical Society. The chapter is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) educational organization incorporated under the laws of the state of Texas. Emphasis of the chapter is activity, history, and enjoyment of railroading past and present.
Meetings are held 7:30-10:00 PM, first Tuesday of each month, often (but not always) at the Grapevine Tourist & Visitor Information Center at Main St. and the FWWR railroad tracks. Visitors and newcomers are welcome.
