As you stay warm inside and enjoy tonight’s Super Bowl, we’re reminded that New England is built on icons, past, present, and future.

The Patriots are chasing their next chapter. The Flying Yankee is, too, working to go from a shining piece of history to an operational legend once again.

Here’s to honoring the past while building what comes next. Happy Super Bowl Sunday!

Santa may bring the presents, but you bring the progress.

To our donors, volunteers, supporters and fans: thank you for carrying the Flying Yankee forward with your generosity and passion. And Santa… next time, please remember: never cross live track without looking both ways (and use a designated crossing area) 😉

With gratitude this holiday season,

Happy Thanksgiving from the Flying Yankee Association!

While turkeys everywhere may be rallying for “Pizza, Not Turkeys,” we’re over here giving thanks for you — our amazing friends, fans, volunteers, and supporters who keep the Flying Yankee Association’s efforts rolling full steam ahead.

Your enthusiasm has kept our feathers unruffled, our momentum cooking, and our restoration efforts on track. From open houses to traction motors to big plans for the future in Conway, your support has been nothing short of GRAVY-level good.

So as you gather around the table today — whether it features turkey, pizza, or both (we won’t judge!) — know that we’re incredibly grateful for your dedication to preserving this iconic piece of railroading history.

Thank you, and Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at flyingyankee.org!

Your dedication and sacrifice inspire us every day.
