Preservation Foundation Selects Car 67 for Matching Grant!

The Narrow Gauge Preservation Foundation (NGPF), whose mission is to enhance museum exhibits where the public can learn the story of narrow gauge railroading in a coherent, comprehensive, and entertaining manner, has selected the preservation and restoration of Bridgton & Saco River railroad boxcar 67 for a matching grant. Now at the WW&F railway museum, car 67 needs extensive repairs before it can be used in the educational mission of the museum.

Specifically, the NGPF is offering a 2:1 "challenge grant." For each $1 raised by a new donor to the WW&F Railway Museum specifically for this restoration, the NGPF will donate $2 – up to the budgeted amount for the restoration. In short, the WW&F needs $2400 of new donations to receive a $4600 grant from the NGPF – which will allow the WW&F to restore car 67 over the next several months.
