Train Day at Eldridge Park
Fri & Sat | 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM

The Erie Railroad Boxcar Exhibit will show the historic Erie Railroad boxcar that is reportedly only occasionally open to the public during special events such as ‘Train Day’. The Erie Railroad boxcar was built in 1928 and reportedly served in general freight service for many years before being repurposed. 

The car was moved to Eldridge Park in Elmira in 2007 and has been slowly restored by members of the society. It is now being used as the centerpiece of the exhibit that will be on display.
