THE FRIENDS OF THE STEWARTSTOWN RAILROAD NEED YOUR HELP!!!

 

THE FRIENDS CAPITAL CAMPAIGN TO SAVE THE HISTORIC STEWARTSTOWN RAILROAD

In southern York County, Pennsylvania, just a stone's throw from the Mason-Dixon Line, is a gem of authentic American history: the tiny Stewartstown Railroad. Its 7.4 miles of track meander westward between its namesake town of Stewartstown to New Freedom, Pennsylvania where its rails connect to the former Pennsylvania Railroad's Northern Central line. Along the way the line passes two train stations, an enginehouse, and crosses several bridges, some of which are on the National Register of Historic Places.

Recent times have not been kind to the railroad, and, in fact, the railroad is in real danger of disappearing if funds to rehabilitate and restore the line are not forthcoming. The Friends of the Stewartstown Railroad, Inc., a not-for-profit, tax-exempt organization under IRS regulation 501(c)(3) founded in 2006, is conducting a capital campaign to raise funds needed to preserve the Stewartstown Railroad.
