The Association of Railway Museums sponsors annual conferences and meetings that allow delegates and other interested individuals to meet and exchange ideas relevant to the rail museum community.

The annual conference is normally held in the fall at a member museum and often includes pre-conference trips to area rail-themed museums and attractions. Conferences usually start on Thursday morning and conclude Sunday morning. Content includes symposia, roundtables, facility tours and a catered banquet. Details about the next annual conference are on the annual conference page.

The Spring Meeting is normally held in April for two days on a weekend and is also hosted at a member institution. Details are on the Spring Meeting page.
