Enjoy a leisurely train ride through the heart of Central Pennsylvania!
Excursions take passengers on a one-hour, nine-mile roundtrip through rolling hills, farms, and forests. Steam powered trains depart northbound from the historic Orbisonia Station along our narrow-gauge mainline, originally constructed in 1872. Take a true step back in time and enjoy a ride on America’s oldest operating narrow gauge railroad.
