This place is amazing destination for young and old. It's a real live steam and diesel heavy repair shop in action. You can visit year around, they do fall excursions, August open house, pumpkin trains, santa trains, and much, much more! They are located just East of 469 on US 24 at the Webster Road Exit. Once you are on Webster Road head South two miles and turn Right and they are located on the left side a quarter mile to the West. Stop by and check them out!

We have visited the Santa train for four years now. My boys love it each time! It’s such a fun, unique thing that a small city like Fort Wayne is able to offer. The inside of the train was decorated really cute, too!

I think it depends on what excursion you are going on. When we did the 10 minute steam engine ride we paid like $7.

I have found a railroad (blue print like) picture from 1916 in frame...is this worth anything? Has fort Wayne in paper from 1916 used as a frame filler. Just curious Thank you Elvince

Hard to say for certain without inspection. But almost all railroad artifacts have value. Find a local railroad club or take it to the historic society for evaluation.

So do you know for sure what time you coming thru Arcadia
