What makes the Everett Railroad one of Pennsylvania's most unique train experiences?

This week on Tonight's Destination, Pam and John welcome Hannah Adams, Manager of Passenger Excursions for the Everett Railroad, for a conversation about steam trains, freight railroading, railroad history, and family-friendly excursions in Blair County.

The Everett Railroad offers visitors the chance to ride behind a historic steam locomotive while also serving as an active freight railroad. From scenic excursions and seasonal events to special themed rides, the railroad provides a unique way to experience central Pennsylvania.

We also discuss the excitement surrounding Union Pacific Big Boy No. 4014's upcoming stop in Blair County and the special events the Everett Railroad is planning throughout the celebration weekend. Big Boy 4014 is the world's largest operating steam locomotive and its appearance is expected to draw railroad enthusiasts from across the country.
