North America Railway Hall of Fame (NARHF) is a not-for-profit organization housed in the recently restored Canada Southern Railway Station in St. Thomas, Ontario, Canada. It was founded to maintain, preserve and honor railway history with the induction into the Hall of Fame of people, events, structures, railway art forms, rolling stock, technical innovations, railway workers and trains, and inventions in the railway history.[1] Incorporated in 1996[2] its goal is to educate the public about the impact of railway transportation in the categories of "North America," as well as "National", specific to Canada and "Local" (St. Thomas.)
