Area residents still have several opportunities to take a step back in time this holiday season to an era when train tracks connected the world and the sound of a locomotive’s whistle approaching in the distance made pulses race and blood flow more quickly.
Meadville Railroad Depot’s Christmas festivities continue this weekend and on Dec. 24. In addition to the usual displays of Meadville area railroad memorabilia, the depot is decorated for the holidays and kids of all ages will be mesmerized by four elaborate model train setups plus a “Polar Express”-themed model geared toward the little ones. Admission is free.
“It has been a good time,” Bernie Hanmore said of the weekend hours that started on Nov. 25, “Black Friday.” “We want everyone to come down and have fun.”
