All aboard for the holiday season’s family fun finale!

It’s a building-wide extravaganza for all train enthusiasts! See a bevy of guest train displays owned and operated by local hobbyists and train associations, including the Duquesne Incline Association, Pennsylvania Trolley Museum, Train Collectors Association, Fort Pitt Hi-Railers, STEELTOWN “N” Scalers – among others. Train fans of all ages can learn about “scale” through the variety of interactive set-ups.

In addition to the awesome displays, visit the Miniature Railroad & Village® to see your favorite models – including Kaufmann’s and Primanti’s, and this year’s new addition, Gus & YiaYia’s ice ball cart.

Plus, it’s the closing days of Rocky Mountain Express at The Rangos Giant Cinema! Chug into Pittsburgh’s largest screen to embark on the ultimate steam-powered adventure. From spectacular IMAX aerial cinematography of the Canadian Rockies to archival photographs and maps, be immersed in this remarkable story from the early age of steam-powered transportation.
