? A portrayal of President Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address
?? Food, Drinks, and other vendors celebrating the Big Boy and  America's 250th Anniversary
Railroads helped build America, connected communities, fueled industry, and transformed the Lebanon Valley into the thriving region we know today. This special visit offers a unique opportunity to experience living history and witness one of the greatest engineering marvels ever built.
