Thomas is back at Strasburg Rail Road this weekend, September 18–20! Families can climb aboard for Day Out With Thomas: Let’s Rock, Let’s Roll!, featuring a real train ride with Thomas, themed photo opportunities, activities, games, music and plenty of family fun.
But when your adventure on Sodor is over, don’t let the train fun stop there! Make the National Toy Train Museum your next stop. It’s the perfect follow-up for young Thomas fans who want to see even more trains—and for parents, grandparents and collectors who want to explore incredible toy train displays, layouts and railroad history.
Best of all, kids 12 and under are FREE at the National Toy Train Museum during the event weekend! So turn Day Out With Thomas into a full train-filled family day in Lancaster County.
Kids, bring your parents too! 🚂❤️
