Save Our Steam-train (SOS) Campaign1913_vulcan.jpg

The Vulcan Iron Works Steam Locomotive at the Georgia Agrirama is the only steam locomotive still in regular operation and providing rides to the public in all of the state of Georgia.   Due to severe cuts in the state budget, the Georgia Agrirama has recentely been forced to drastically cut many of the programs offered by the museum.  Unfortunataly, the vintage steam powered train has been hard hit by these budget cuts.  With operating cost running over $200 per day, the steam train that once ran on a daily basis has been forced to only be fired when funds can be raised to support it.  Please consider helping the Georgia Agrirama Save Our Steam-train through your sponsorship of the SOS campaign through the Georgia Agrirama Foundation - a 501 (c) (3) corporation.  All donations are completely tax deductible!
