October 8 & 9, transport yourself to the Wild West during this celebration of cowboy and cowgirl culture at the Northern Central railway's PA Cowboy Weekend!
Ride along with the No. 17 locomotive with “the most reckless class of outlaws in the wild country,” and prepare for an experience straight out of the most beloved cowboy films. This celebration of cowboy culture immerses visitors in the most unique movement of the 1800s. The Wild West movies from the 1950s to today romanticize the life of the cowboy and cowgirl and make us all want to be participants in the cowboy life. Cowboys were referred to as “the most reckless class of outlaws in the wild country.” The No.17 locomotive is exactly like those that ran at the time of expansion west and it creates a unique stage for cowboy robberies and learning about the cowboy lifestyles.
