Announcing our five-day program for kids entering 4th to 6th grades to explore the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania and railroad history through a variety of activities.

During the Barons & Builders day camp at the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania, your child will examine how railroads have played, and continue to play, a major role in the transportation of people and things across America and around the world.  Campers will engage in a number of hands on activities that explore how railroading was developed through science and technology, how it has impacted our arts and culture, and how it has shaped our history.
