Preservation Award Nomination Form

2026 Outstanding Railroad Historic Preservation Award

Nomination Form

The National Railway Historical Society, and Railway Age magazine, wants to recognize and honor a North American common carrier railroad for a historically significant preservation project completed or put into operation within the prior five years. Projects may include locomotives or any type of rolling stock, buildings, stations, a rail line, or a significant rail line feature such as a bridge, viaduct, tunnel, etc.

Projects that result in returning the asset to its original use will be prioritized over static displays or no-longer-operational assets. Projects accessible to the general public will be prioritized for recognition.

NRHS members and Railway Age subscribers may use this form to submit a nomination.
