Everett Railroad Company

The Everett Railroad in Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania, is one of the few privately owned operating steam railroads in the eastern United States, running excursion trains through the forested highlands of Blair County near the famous Horseshoe Curve. The railroad operates vintage steam and diesel equipment on a scenic mountain route, offering passengers an authentic steam railroading experience in the heart of the Pennsylvania Alleghenies — the same mountains that challenged the original Pennsylvania Railroad engineers in the 1850s. Excursion trains run on select weekends and special event dates from spring through fall, with the railroad’s beautiful mountain scenery making it particularly popular for fall foliage trips. The Everett is a true working short line that also handles occasional freight, giving it an authenticity rarely found on heritage railroads.
