The East Broad Top Railroad Archives & Special Collections Program

The East Broad Top Railroad Archives and Special Collections Program (EBTRR ASC) was established as a joint program by the East Broad Top Foundation (EBTF) and the Friends of the East Broad Top (FEBT) to protect, preserve, and provide access to the history, memory, and legacy of the East Broad Top Railroad (“The EBT”) National Historic Landmark.

Since its inception in May 2021, the archives has prioritized materials needed to restore railroad operations and support the EBTF and FEBT.  As those materials are processed and digitized,  they are available for public access.

The archives is interested in acquiring original East Broad Top Railroad records and artifacts, as well as unique photographs and records that will help us tell the story of the EBT – its operations and people, and the industries and communities the railroad served.  Our Scope of Collections provides additional detail on our collection needs.  Please contact us at archivist@eastbroadtop.com if you have personal collections you believe may be of interest.
