The Railway Restoration Project 113 has announced scheduled dates for Santa Train Rides.
Join Santa and Mrs. Claus and some of your favorite winter characters as they board the steam train behind the 113 on Saturday, December 10th, and Sunday, December 11th, at 10:30 a.m., 1:00 p.m., and 3:30 p.m.

3 and under free, but you must have the PinkTicket to ride.

You may buy tickets in person at the Minersville Borough Building, 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. on Fridays. Note that the Borough will NOT take reservations by phone: in-person cash or check sales only, with checks made out to Project 113.

You can also order tickets by mailing a check payable to RR Project 113 and mail to 113 East Sunbury Street, Minersville PA 17954. 

Send a self-addressed stamped envelope if you would like your tickets mailed to you; otherwise they will hold them at the station for pick-up on the day of the ride. Please include your e-mail address so they may confirm your choices.

You may also telephone Project 113 at 570-544-8300 and we can hold tickets for you at the station, but you must still make payment ahead of time.

Parking for the train rides available at the Schuylkill Technology Center--South Campus (Schuylkill Intermediate Unit 19), with bus service to the station; more info here. Please do NOT park at the Minersville station or Dollar General in Minersville!
