Extra info from Leslie and Maury
 

Today, I actually took the drive to see how long it was going to take. I am going to need to reschedule the start time to leave promptly at 9:00. 

 
I spoke to the conductor and about ticketing in particular for veterans. If you are ordering a ticket, please put in the notes section that you’re with the PACE Miata club. For anyone who is purchasing a veterans ticket, because it is free, you need to contact them directly. The person to contact is Ashley Zimmerman 717-676-8998. 
 
It will take 20 minutes or so to go from the railway to the restaurant. Both drives are scenic and should be fun. I know it’s been a lot of revisions and I appreciate everyone’s patience.  Hope to see you for this event!

 

Living historian Bob Gleason will have you believing you are seeing the real Abraham Lincoln. Relive the emotion and passion of the 1860s when we recreate Lincoln’s November 1863 ride on the Northern Central Railway. President Lincoln traveled these rails on his way to Gettysburg to present the Gettysburg Address, and two years later his funeral car used the same line. Learn more about these trips and the history of the Gettysburg Address and listen to Mr. Gleason recite President Lincoln’s famous speech.

Among the notable venues Bob Gleason has performed are the White House Visitor’s Center, Ford’s Theatre, the National Archives, the Library of Congress, Mount Rushmore, the National Constitution Center, and Independence Hall. Mr. Gleason brings his in-depth historical research and audience interactivity right here to the Northern Central Railway of York!
