Who we are

The Blue Ridge Live Steamers are a casual group of ride-on train enthusiasts who enjoy operating trains on 5 acres of beautiful land in Franklin County, Virginia. The club has been active for 45 years, first meeting at nearby Roanoke’s Transportation Museum and, since 1987, at the current location. Come join us for friendly fellowship and fun while running trains and working on track!

4,300+ ft of bidirectional track on 5 acres with tunnels, bridges, train storage facilities, a clubhouse, camping, & more!
