ALTOONA, BLAIR COUNTY - All aboard. Here's your chance to go on a steam engine excursion.

Norfolk Southern has teamed up with two railroad organizations for the 21st Century Steam excursion trips this Spring.

Train enthusiasts will have the chance to ride on the steam locomotive NKP 765.

That same engine came through Central Pennsylvania last summer.

The excursion will take place on May 25, 26, and 27.

The rides go from Lewistown to the Horseshoe Curve.

More details can be found from the Fort Wayne Railroad Historical Society
