Description
The Strasburg Railroad - Passenger train with 1890 vintage coaches pauses beneath one of the many giant trees that flank the ancient track between Paradise and Strasburg. To thousands of tourists the leisurely ride, away from the crowded highways through the colorful fields and deep woods of the adjacent Amish and Mennonite farms is the highlight of their visit to Lancaster County, Penna.
