Following the memorable Hamburg Hamburger Festival, I passed the Reading Railroad Heritage Museum which was advertising later hours and yard tours for $5.
The museum has knowledgeable volunteers leading yard tours on the weekends; five on Saturdays and three on Sundays.
They have ambitious engine and train car restoration projects, plus the whole site design and landscaping.
I have a passive interest in trains, but the volunteers were so into the history, massive machines, and railroad culture that it was easy to share their enthusiasm about trains.
