Don’t miss the train!
The Indiana History Train visits Sullivan, Bargersville, New Castle and Evansville in October.

Ties to the past
This fall, hop aboard the History Train and get a hands-on, close-up look at Hoosiers whose lives were touched by the Civil War.

Three 65-foot refurbished freight cars will roll into four Indiana communities with a unique traveling exhibition, Faces of the Civil War, which explores Indiana and the Civil War. Hands-on activities and a Civil War-era actor/interpreter help visitors learn more about Indiana life during that era. Enjoy the film Well Done, Indiana and purchase Civil War-related items at the depot gift shop.

Stops:
Oct. 2-4: Sullivan
Oct. 9-11: Bargersville
Oct. 16-18: New Castle
Oct. 23-25: Evansville
