About this event
Our first event of 2022 will begin at the Continental Slope 190 (Lackawanna Mine Tour). Saturday May 28, we will be meeting at the mine tour parking lot at 8:30 AM for the briefing, then headed down the slope at 9:00 AM sharp. We will be inside until around 11 AM when we will be hoisted outside. We will then travel to Nay Aug Park in Scranton where we will discuss how we are rehabilitating the Brooks Drift Mine. We will open the mine gates and allow you to take a look inside from the entrance (we will not be going inside the Brooks). After we are finished there, we will be driving to our restoration shop in Factoryville where we will be serving a BBQ with burgers, hot dogs, chicken and sides! Water and soda will be provided, any other beverages you are welcome to bring along. You will be able to inspect the work we are completing on our two historic locomotives as well as mine cars and some artifacts. Our Whitcomb battery locomotive will be operational for demonstrations. It’s been a while since we did a multi-location event and we are really looking forward to this one!
