Our Depot Goals

  1. To preserve the train depot for the public benefit of the citizens of Orange, by utilizing it as a community center for receptions, a museum, a gift shop, and a conference room for local clubs. The grounds may be used for special events.
  2. To promote community involvement in the process of fundraising to fund the costs of restoration and operations.
  3. To use the restoration of the depot to revitalize downtown Orange by promoting  tourism as the "Gateway to the Historic District."
