“This year National Train Day falls on May 11. The “holiday” was first celebrated in the year 2008 and continues to be celebrated to this day. The celebrations were conceptualized by Amtrak as a way to spread awareness about the history of railway networks in the U.S. and why more people should use this mode of transport.

What better way to celebrate National Train Day and Mother’s Day than by bringing the family and a picnic to our museum to get up close and personal with our collection, the depot, the exhibits, and – enjoy unlimited train rides Saturday, May 11, all day long.”
