Summary
Take a journey from yesteryears of transporting through the wild west to present-day on the railroads. America has a long standing love affair with trains. From its yesteryears of transporting ore through the Wild West to present-day journeys, the railroads were a crucial part of the creation of the National Park System, taking early visitors to Yosemite, Yellowstone, Glacier, and other parks that were nearly inaccessible by other means. Although roads have made access easier in recent history. Today National Parks, National Historic Sites, National Historic Landmarks and Historic Civil Engineering Landmarks preserve America's rich rail history and delight millions of people from around the world through scenic rail excursions and informative interactive exhibits. Featured parks include: Grand Canyon National Park, Arizona; Denali National Park and Preserve, Alaska; Cuyahoga National Park, Ohio; Steamtown National Historic Site, Pennsylvania; Golden Spike National Historic Site, Utah; Allegheny Portage Railroad National Historic Site, Pennsylvania; Durango-Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad National Historic Landmark and Historic Civil Engineering Landmark, Colorado; Cumbres and Toltec Scenic Railroad National Historic Landmark, Colorado
