August 16th: TRAIN MARKET 10am-2pm ---- 20% off total purchase
August 1, 2025
Iron Spike STILL needs your financial support - URGENTLY! Without it we may be forced to close this wonderful attraction in the Fall of 2025. If you don't want to see that happen, please try to find an extra few $$ to donate to our "Buy the Building" campaign. Just scan the QR code to the left to donate on-line.
We have a few donors/investors that we are talking to about saving the museum. It comes down to being able to buy our building. At the same time we're trying to raise the money for a down payment to qualify for a loan, we still have to pay the rent and utilities and keep the trains running.
We're also looking for volunteers interested in helping operate the museum, sell items on eBay, help with the bookkeeping, keep an eye on visitors, do general clean up, and lots more. If you are looking for a place to volunteer where you would make a difference, please come to Iron Spike!
So, you've all heard of a bridal registry? Iron Spike now has a "Registry for Good" courtesy of Walmart.com. It is another way you can show your love and support to your favorite model train museum. We have a registry called "Everyday Essentials." It only contains things we use on a regular basis such as office supplies, batteries for the LEGO display, and coffee for the volunteers. We've kept the list modest and frugal. The great thing is ANYONE can purchase off the list, and the items will be delivered directly to us. Here is the link to our registry landing page. Maybe you will find something on our list that you would like to help out with. Of course, we have also included gift cards to help out with those unexpected or one-time purchase needs.
