Have a question about York County railroads? These four teens will have the answer
Great to see young people steeped in history.
Four high schoolers are putting their knowledge – and energy – behind the Red Lion Area Historical Society’s Train Station Museum.
They come from different high schools, but local history ties them together – particularly railroad history.
Meet friends Tate Lehman, Nate Heffner, Nathan Filak, and Tristan Mundis,
You’ll see them around the station, interacting with visitors and operating the extensive model railroad platform at the rear of the old Ma & Pa Railroad Station.
I asked Tristan, 16, if he would show me his five favorite artifacts at the museum.
“It was hard to choose five things. There are so many things in here that I … like,” he said.
You’ll find his selections below.
Their enthusiasm for local history is infectious and their knowledge is deep!
Oh, and the next open house is July 28: https://tinyurl.com/y5n5hg5z.
