From staff reports
The Oil Creek & Titusville Railroad and Oil Creek & Titusville Lines will offer a new train excursion for people who want to photograph its locomotives.
Many people have traveled on the OC&T to view “the valley that changed the world,” but this new event, a Photo Freight Charter, will give railroad enthusiasts a chance to see and photograph the railroad’s freight engines.
The ride will depart at 3 p.m. Saturday, May 28, from the Perry Street Station in Titusville. Riders will board a combination train that will make a few stops down the mainline track into Oil Creek State Park.
This run will use the entire family of engines that are located in Titusville.
Fans of the Alco S-2 locomotives will be delighted to see Engines 75 and 85 together. And the M-420W 3568 will also be an integral part of the event as it will be joining the other engines in true Oil Creek & Titusville colors.
For those interested in this event, tickets are limited (35 seats) and will be available by calling (814) 676-1733.
Payment can be made via credit/debit card over the phone. The cost of the event is $50.
Box lunches will be available by pre-order only for an additional $15.
The OC&T Railroad station is located at 409 S. Perry St. in Titusville.
