EXCURSIONS

Join us on a journey back in time with our unique excursions at the Iron Horse Society!

While these trips offer a delightful blend of fun and education, they serve a more vital role as key fundraisers. Each ticket you purchase helps sustain our mission to preserve and celebrate the rich heritage of railroads. By participating, you're not just enjoying a memorable day out; you're also contributing to the conservation of history and supporting the vibrant community at the Steamtown National Historic Site. Come aboard, experience the thrill of the rails, and play a pivotal role in keeping history alive!

2025 Excursion Schedule Coming Soon!

We're hard at work planning an unforgettable lineup of train excursions for the 2025 season. While we’re not quite ready to share the schedule just yet, we promise it’ll be worth the wait!

In the meantime, keep an eye on this page and follow us on social media for updates. You won’t want to miss your chance to ride the rails through history!

Want to be the first to know? Sign up for updates and stay on track with all things Steamtown and the Iron Horse Society!
