CN Pensioner Volunteers

The CN Pensioners’ Association of Newfoundland and Labrador is made up of retired employees of the Canadian National Railway and CN Marine. Members have worked in every facet of the railway, coastal boat, and communications systems on the island, and their experiences are one of the museum’s most valuable resources.

CN railway and marine pensioners have donated artifacts and photographs, helped promote the museum, provided

Fabian Kennedy and Capt. Joe Prim

historical information and consultation, and most importantly contributed their time and experiences to the museum as volunteers.

Our volunteers put the human face on our railway and coastal boat history. They tell stories, share anecdotes, answer questions, and make our museum visitors feel welcome and appreciated.
