FOCUS: Rail museum volunteering leads to full-time conducting

By Christopher M. Cano  |  One afternoon while visiting the Southeastern Railway Museum a member of the gatehouse staff approached who handed me a small slip of paper and suggested I apply to be a volunteer. At that point, I didn’t have much to do so I thought it would be a good opportunity to be productive and get some experience.
