The Bradford Ohio Railroad Museum Festival & Train Meet features train layouts,
model train & historical train vendors, children's activities, entertainment, a
garden train exhibit, speakers, workshops, demonstrations & delicious food. The
Bradford Ohio Railroad Museum dedicates this festival to the preservation of
Bradford & southwestern Ohio railroad heritage. The railroad was once a
significant part of Bradford's economy, employing many who manned the trains,
worked in the switching yards and in the roundhouse where steam locomotives were
kept and maintained between runs.
The museum has restored Bradford's former Pennsylvania Railroad BF interlocking
tower and opened a museum in the former bank building. The main location for
the festival will be at The Bradford Schools. The museum, tower, and school
will contain photographic and physical displays that will allow the visitor to
take a walk back through Bradford's railroad history. The RR Festival is
located at three venues in Bradford OH; there is transportation provided. In
addition, two other locations within 2 miles of Bradford will be open with
major model train and antique historical artifacts! The museum Gift Shoppe will
be open and feature a number of train paraphernalia and Cat’s Meow figurines of
historical train locations.
