“We have the last steam locomotive train to be built by the Pennsylvania Railroad, the last one running,” Vice President of Williams Grove Historical Steam Engine Association Dale Bentz said. “And it is very significant. We are trying to get it on the National Register.”

The show runs Aug. 24 to Sept. 1 and it’s $5 a person to get in or $10 dollars a carload. Kids ages 12 or under are free.
