The Bellefonte Historical Railroad Society is an all-volunteer historical society dedicated to promoting, preserving, and fostering a public appreciation of the railroading heritage of Bellefonte and Centre County, Pennsylvania.

Upcoming Events

The Bellefonte Historical Railroad Society is offering rides on our vintage Budd RDC-1 #9167 in conjunction with the Bellefonte Cruise 2024. On Saturday, June 15th rides will depart every hour on the hour from the historic Bellefonte Train Station starting at 11AM and ending at 4PM. Rides will last approximately 30 minutes and alternate between a turnaround point at or around Axemann (Fish Hatchery - 11am, 1 & 3pm) and Milesburg (Community Park - noon, 2 & 4pm). All rides depart from and return to the Train Station. Tickets are $15.00.

It takes a lot to run a railroad! If you’re interested in helping out in any way, please consider coming to our monthly meetings or becoming a member. We are always looking for folks of all skill levels and experience to join us, no railroading experience necessary! We meet the second Tuesday of every month at 7PM in the historic Bellefonte train station.
