Steamtown National Historic Site Railfest 2025 Starts tomorrow and runs through Sunday. La Festa Italiana will also be held Friday through Monday, Aug. 29 through Sept. 1, 2025 in Scranton. Shuttles will be running between the two events.

Every good celebration deserves a kickoff, and Railfest 2025 starts with a grand opening ceremony on Friday, August 29th!

There is plenty for us to celebrate this year as we commemorate 30 years since Steamtown National Historic Site’s official grand opening and the 100th birthday of our Grand Trunk Western 6039.

Gates open at 9:00 AM, and our official opening ceremony for Railfest begins at 10:30 AM at the turntable at the center of the museum complex.

The ceremony will include:

• A color guard presented by the University of Scranton ROTC.

• The playing of the National Anthem.

• A special welcome from Superintendent Jeremy Komasz.

• Our surprise Honorary Railfest Conductor.

• An appearance by Phoebe Snow.

• A demonstration of the turntable.

We are excited to see you this Labor Day weekend for fun, excitement, and the thrills of American railroading!
