Introduction

The Three Rivers Narrow Gauge Historical Society is dedicated to the history of Eastern North American narrow gauge railroads.  Originally begun by a group interested in narrow gauge lines in the Pittsburgh area, today our focus is from Maine to Florida and the Atlantic to the Mississippi, with occasional excursions into eastern Canada.  For an annual dues of $20, members receive four issues of Light Iron and Short Ties, our magazine now in its 17th year.  There are feature articles on particular narrow gauge lines, narrow gauge equipment and operations, photos, book and video reviews, and letters to the editor.  In addition, the TRNGHS holds an annual meeting each summer.

Three Rivers Narrow Gauge Historical Society, inc. is a 501 (c) non-profit society.  The TRNGHS is recognized by the National Model Railroad Association (NMRA) as a Special interest Group.
