Steamtown National Historic Site by Margo L. Azzarelli Pdf

In 1984, the former Delaware, Lackawanna & Western Railroad yard became the home to a millionaire's train collection. Nine years and many improvements later, the Steamtown National Historic Site opened its door to welcome over 100,000 visitors annually. Steamtown occupies an estimated 65 acres of the old Scranton railroad yard with several of its original structures remaining on the site. It also includes a visitor's center, two museums, a restored roundhouse, and a plethora of exhibits and locomotives much to the delight of railfans of all ages. The Steamtown National Historic Site is an integral part of the preservation of railroad history, as it is representative of a steam-era gone by.

Steamtown National Historic Site, Pennsylvania by A. Berle Clemensen Pdf

Excerpt from Steamtown National Historic Site, Pennsylvania: Historic Resource Study The twentieth century produced further changes in railroading. Weak regulatory legislation, which permitted continued abuse, was slowly modified by further government enactments until the Transportation Act of 1920 provided railroad men with the regulation they had desired for years. This act came almost too late, for the year 1916 marked the end of the golden age of railroads. After that date track mileage began to shrink. Soon, competition from automobiles, trucks, buses, airlines, pipelines, and renewed water transportation began to capture more and more railroad business. This declining economic position continued until, in the 19705, Northeastern railroading collapsed and for the most part was consolidated into the semipublic National Railroad Passenger Corporation.

Excerpt from Steamtown National Historic Site, Pennsylvania: Railroad Yard, Design Program/Interpretive Concept The management objectives defined in the initial plan have been further refined to provide better guidance to management. The following objectives supersede those contained in the plan; otherwise, most of what was initially published in the Comprehensive Management Plan remains valid for Steamtown National Historic Site. To provide a setting evocative of steam railroading that retains the historic industrial working character of the yard, incorporating the preservation of historic structures to the greatest extent practicable. To provide sufficient year-round facilities and programs so that visitors can understand the role of steam railroads in the growth of our country, while allowing opportunities for hands-on, active experiences, including riding on a steam era train and showing how a steam era railroad operated. To preserve and/ or restore locomotives and cars in the park collection for purposes of excursion, interpretation, and exhibition. In order to improve interpretive and/ or educational opportunities, selective acquisition may be made in the future.
