ORHF operates the Oregon Rail Heritage Center – a working museum, open to the public, free of charge. The Center includes visual and hands-on exhibits and displays, houses vintage railcars, and operates short excursions behind diesel and steam locomotives.
The Foundation raises funds for museum operations and for building and exhibit improvements. ORHF is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation, incorporated in the state of Oregon.
The Foundation’s volunteer Board of Directors oversees the operations of the Foundation. Directors include members of ORHF’s founding partner organizations, and at-large community members.
