Allegany Preservation Society Limited

LXCL:Acquisition, documentation, preservation, interpretation, display, and operation of industrial, and transportation artifacts and equipment located in Allegany County, Maryland and its surrounding area. Allegany Preservation Society Limited is dedicated to preserving the historic B&amp;O Paw Paw Station in West Virginia, ensuring its legacy as a vital part of the Baltimore &amp; Ohio Railroad's history and the Potomac Valley's transportation heritage.

Help Us Bring the Paw Paw Station Home The Allegany Preservation Society Limited is working to acquire and preserve the historic B&amp;O Paw Paw Station in Paw Paw, West Virginia. Built in 1881&ndash;1882, the station is an important surviving piece of the Baltimore &amp; Ohio Railroad&rsquo;s history and the transportation history of the Potomac Valley. We are now raising $6,500 for the Paw Paw Station Surveyor Fund. A professional boundary and improvement survey is a required part of our due diligence as we move toward acquisition of the property. The survey will establish the property boundaries, locate the historic station and other improvements, and provide the information needed to move forward with the acquisition and future preservation of the site. This is not a general operating fund. Every dollar raised through this campaign will help pay for the professional survey needed to take the next step toward ownership of the station. How You Can Help Donate: Whether you give $10, $50, $100, or more, your contribution brings us closer to completing the survey. Share: If you cannot contribute, sharing this campaign with friends, family, railroad enthusiasts, and others who care about historic preservation is just as valuable. Spread the Word: The Paw Paw Station has been standing for more than 140 years. With your help, we can give it a future. The goal is simple: complete the survey, acquire the station, and begin the work of preserving it for the community and future generations. Thank you for supporting the Allegany Preservation Society Limited and helping us move one step closer to bringing the Paw Paw Station home.

Our Mission: Preserving the Paw Paw Railroad Station The Allegany Preservation Society Limited (APSL) is dedicated to preserving the historic Paw Paw Railroad Station in Paw Paw, West Virginia, and protecting the railroad and industrial heritage of the surrounding region. Our immediate goal is to raise $10,000 for the initial stabilization of the station and cleanup of the surrounding property. These first steps are essential to protecting this historic structure from further deterioration while we continue to develop a responsible, long-term preservation plan. Funds raised will support necessary stabilization and weatherproofing work, property cleanup, and preliminary preservation needs. We also intend to pursue grant funding for professional LiDAR documentation of the building, which will help inform future rehabilitation planning and support applications for additional preservation funding. The station&#39;s preservation will be a phased undertaking, and our immediate priority is to protect the building and establish a foundation for its eventual rehabilitation, interpretation, and use as a place for railroad history, education, and community engagement. As a volunteer-led, tax-exempt 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, APSL depends on the generosity of donors, community supporters, and preservation advocates to carry this work forward.Every contribution helps protect a piece of railroad history and brings us one step closer to securing the Paw Paw Railroad Station&#39;s future. Together, we can preserve the past and build a future for this historic landmark.
