We invite you to join us as former owner and business operator Ken Hill hands Borough Council President, Bruce Markovich the keys to the historic station. Guests will also hear from local historian Dale Freudenberger, as he speaks on the importance of preserving this unique piece of historic architecture.
The future vision of the station is to create a multi-use community and visitor center that houses eateries, shopping, venue space, interactive entertainment, landscaped outdoor space for social gatherings, and resting area for hikers and bikers while respecting and preserving the deep history
that lives on at the train station turned machine shop.
