Members of Scout Troop 1853 of Springfield completed two major service projects at the end of 2018 for the Fairfax Station Railroad Museum. The Museum is located at 11200 Fairfax Station Road in Fairfax Station. The first project, organized by Scout Joshua Britt, was paving the Station's nature trail with 22 tons of crushed stone. The second project was the restoration of the Station's motor car ("speeder") and replacement of a deteriorating Crossing Guard sign by Scout Dennis Velez.
