2024 Summer Camp

Children 5-12 years old will get the chance to learn about, and see up close, locomotives and railcars from 1960 forward. Campers will experience train rides and a tour of our restoration and repair shop at the museum. They will get to see what the museum shop crew is currently working on and hear from our guest speaker from CSX about train safety.

Camp includes train rides and lots of fun with arts and crafts, activities, games, lessons, and more! This year camp will be held at our new Education Center located on site which includes indoor classrooms, an outdoor classroom, and picnic area on our 35-acrea museum.

This year the museum will offer 2 separate weeks to join in the fun. Register now as space fills up quickly! Camp fees include a camp T-shirt and a daily snack.
