This program features the Gettyburg’s ex-Mississippian 2-8-0 consolidation number 76. Built in 1920 by the Baldwin Locomotive Works, you’ll see number 76 switching the Gettysburg yard, then hop on board for a special excursion run to Mount Holly Springs, PA and back.

From the time you leave the station ‘til the time you return, you’ll enjoy the clickety-clack of steel wheels on steel rails and the bark of exhaust as number 76 fills the air with a beautiful display of sight and sound.

You will enjoy this steam trip through the central Pennsylvania Allegheny forest and across the massive Kinzua Viaduct, which was once the highest railroad bridge in the world. You’ll also see a brand-new steam locomotive, SY-class 2-8-2 No. 1658M, from the Tangshan Shops in China.
