Donations

Shady Dell Train Park is entirely run by volunteers and relies on donations in order to operate. We are a 501(C)(3) non-profit corporation.

We take pride in our role as the guardians of a family destination that has been a staple of the Willamette Valley for 70 years. We work hard to ensure that your generous donations are used wisely:

  • We regularly upgrade our guest amenities.   
  • Rail, rock ballast, ties, and switches are upgraded and replaced to keep our track safe and smooth.
  • Locomotives are serviced and rebuilt to ensure reliable operation, and fuel tanks are kept full.
  • Riding cars also need regular inspection and overhaul, ensuring guests can enjoy their ride in comfort and safety.  
  • We maintain the park and all its buildings.

 If you’d like to help us financially, you may either make a PayPal donation or write a check to:

Pacific Northwest Live Steamers, PO Box 1049, Molalla, OR 97038 

If you’d like a receipt for your donation, please contact us or let us know when you send your check.

Thank you for your generous support!
