Coverage Options

Steam Railroad Insurance

Every policy a heritage steam railroad operator needs — in one place, from specialists who know the rails.

General Liability Insurance

General liability is the core policy for any heritage steam railroad. It protects against third-party claims of bodily injury and property damage — at the depot, on the platform, around the grounds, and across your public operations.

  • Third-party bodily injury
  • Property damage liability
  • Depot & platform premises liability
  • Personal & advertising injury

Railroad Liability (FELA) Insurance

Railroad liability addresses the Federal Employers' Liability Act (FELA) exposure unique to rail operations — the fault-based federal system that governs injuries to railroad workers instead of, or alongside, state workers compensation.

  • FELA employee injury liability
  • Negligence-based award coverage
  • Occupational disease claims
  • Engine, train & shop crew exposure
Full coverage details

Passenger Liability Insurance

Passenger liability covers bodily injury claims by the fare-paying passengers riding your train — boarding and alighting, in the coaches, on open-air cars, and during the excursion itself.

  • Fare-paying passenger injury
  • Boarding & alighting claims
  • Open-air & coach car exposure
  • Dinner-train & special-event riders
Full coverage details

Rolling Stock & Equipment Insurance

Rolling stock & equipment insurance covers physical damage to your locomotives, passenger coaches, freight cars, and maintenance-of-way equipment — the high-value, often irreplaceable assets that general and liability policies don't cover.

  • Locomotive & coach physical damage
  • Derailment & collision
  • Fire damage
  • In-transit / interchange coverage
Full coverage details

Boiler & Machinery Insurance

Boiler & machinery (equipment breakdown) insurance covers sudden and accidental failure of your steam boiler and the mechanical and electrical equipment your operation depends on — including resulting damage and lost income.

  • Sudden boiler failure
  • Mechanical breakdown
  • Electrical breakdown
  • Resulting damage

Commercial Property Insurance

Commercial property insurance covers the fixed assets of your railroad — the depot, roundhouse, restoration shop, museum buildings, station, track infrastructure, and contents — against fire, storm, theft, and other covered perils.

  • Depot, roundhouse & shop buildings
  • Museum buildings & collections
  • Shop machinery & tools
  • Track & lineside structures
Full coverage details

Workers Compensation Insurance

Workers compensation covers medical expenses and lost wages when your shop crews, station staff, and other covered employees are injured on the job — coordinated with FELA railroad liability for employees the federal act covers.

  • Medical expense coverage
  • Lost wage replacement
  • Disability benefits
  • Employer liability
