Special guest readers will share stories about trains, railroads and other people, places and things during the Reading on the Rails event at the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania, 300 Gap Road, Strasburg, on Saturday, March 9. Children will receive their very own suitcase and use it to travel from story to story throughout the day. They can collect a sticker after each story and create their own suitcase design with stickers, crayons, glitter and other trimmings. A small gift to put inside their suitcase will be offered, while supplies last.
Reading on the Rails story times are 9:30 a.m., 10:15 a.m., 11 a.m., 11:45 a.m., 1:15 p.m., 2 p.m., 2:45 p.m. and 3:15 p.m. Each event will be held among the historic trains in the museum's climate-controlled Rolling Stock Hall. An American Sign Language interpreter will be on hand for the morning stories. Also appearing throughout the day will be Catcher, the museum's mascot, and various teams from Keystone Pet Enhanced Therapy Services (KPETS).
Museum admission fees apply. For more information, readers may visit http://www.rrmuseumpa.org or call 717-687-8628.
