Grant Description
Grants to USA nonprofit organizations for projects that preserve New England's railroad history. Funding is intended for projects addressing the protection of historic railroad structures, equipment, artifacts, and information. Applications may be submitted for two separate grants via the same application. Only one Award or Grant will be made to any given project.

The H. Albert Webb Memorial Railroad Preservation Award: The purpose of this award is to assist in the preservation of New England railroad history. Among other considerations, projects will be evaluated on the basis of their historical significance and the ability of the sponsor to fund and complete the entire preservation project, not just that portion to be funded by the Award grant.

The Mass Bay RRE Railroad Preservation Fund Grant: These grants support worthy projects to preserve historically significant railroad equipment, structures, information, or artifacts in New England.
