Homefront to War Front: Steam to Victory 2026

United States Army train diorama

Commemorating the Role Played by American Railroads in Achieving Allied Victory in World War II June 19-20, 2026

Special for 2026!

We are partnering with the Dennison Railroad Depot Museum to present Steam to Victory: Homefront to War Front, a World War II–themed event taking place June 19–20, 2026, over Father’s Day weekend.

Step back in time at the Age of Steam Roundhouse Museum to witness the might and power of the WWII war front. There, guests will see how American military forces and steam railroads worked hand-in-hand to support the war effort. Then, travel to the Dennison Railroad Depot Museum, where visitors can experience daily life on the American home front during World War II.

Visitors will enjoy:

Static railroad displays
Artillery and small‑arms demonstrations
World War II military vehicles (Saturday Only) 
Living‑history reenactors
Militaria and food vendors
Short train rides on museum grounds

Gate admission includes access to the military displays and vendor areas.

Train rides and roundhouse tours are available for an additional fee.
