Hawaiian Railway Society, Heritage railway in Ewa, Hawaii, US

The Hawaiian Railway Society operates on a three-foot narrow gauge track, maintaining a collection of vintage diesel locomotives and historical railroad equipment.

The organization formed in 1970 when railroad enthusiasts united to save locomotive No. 6 from being scrapped by the Waialua Agricultural Company.

The society preserves a Merci boxcar, one of forty-nine gifts from French railways to the United States following World War II.

Weekend train rides run on restored tracks between Ewa and Nanakuli, offering visitors educational tours about Hawaii's railroad and sugar plantation history.

The railway holds the distinction of being the sole operating railroad museum in Hawaii, featuring the last remaining Hawaiian road engine.
