American Steam Railroad and Cincinnati Scenic Railway are proud to collaboratively offer 50 FUNDRAISER TICKETS aboard the Ohio Rail Experience’s Spirit of Urbana excursion! Thanks to this collaboration between two Ohio non-profits, ticket proceeds will benefit the restoration of Reading Company T-1 steam locomotive No. 2100 as American Freedom Train No. 250.
The Spirit of Urbana will take passengers over the former Detroit Toledo & Ironton, New York Central and Erie Railroads. Full concessions will be available on the train in the Queen City Tavern Car. During a two-hour layover, passengers can enjoy downtown Urbana’s Second Saturday Festival, including food trucks, local vendors and live entertainment. The excursion will conclude in Washington Court House at 6:00 p.m..

Where We Are
American Steam Railroad rents stall No. 2 of the Midwest Railway Preservation Society’s historic B&O roundhouse, located at 2800 West 3rd Street, Cleveland, Ohio. We welcome visitors to tour American Freedom Train No. 250 during Midwest Railway’s open house events. Due to its historic and industrial nature, not all areas of the roundhouse are ADA-accessible.
All levels of ASR membership may visit us by appointment during any scheduled work day. Consider joining for as little as $35.00 per year, and contact us to set up your appointment.
