The Little River Railroad and Lumber Company Museum continues to sponsor
community events related to railroad and logging history, model railroading and
Little River history.
In April 2005 the museum was host to the Smoky Mountain Division of the
National Model Railroaders Association for a picnic and meeting held on the
grounds.
The museum sponsored a meeting of the Southern Appalachian Logging Railroad
Historical Association, otherwise known as the Black Satchel group, in March
2005.
In November 2003 Bill Hooks gave a special presentation of his "Whistle Over
the Mountain" program, held in Maryville, and sponsored by the museum as a fund
raiser for our TEA-21 grant.
In August 2002 a special event known as the "Log Jam on the Little
River" was held in conjunction with Loyal Legion of Logged On Loggers, and
international group of Logging History enthusiasts.

With our new building currently under construction (and due to be finished
winter 2005-2006), we will have an improved facility to host more events. Watch
