Free tours of the air-conditioned railroad complex, which contains items from Henry W. Stiegel's iron and glassmaking companies, the restored 1881 railway station with men's and women's waiting rooms and offices, and Manheim businesses throughout history. The Birney trolley will be available for rides depending on the weather. All ages are welcome.
