In ShortThe restored train run by the Strasburg Rail Road is pulled by a coal-burning steam locomotive and offers seating in open-air cars, deluxe lounge cars and first-class accommodations. Each ride takes you past Amish farms and into the Lancaster County landscape as guides talk about the Amish way of life. Strasburg is about 90 minutes from Center City, and nearby is the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania, which offers glimpses at engines and what life was like in the train depots of old for those who want to turn their trip into an educational day.
