Steamtown National Historic Site is handicapped accessible, with the exception of some historic locomotives and railroad cars.  Public use elevators are located in the Visitor Center (next to the main staircase), and the History and Technology Museums; the Theater and Roundhouse are accessible via ramps.  Most excursion trains are also handicapped accessible, but handicapped seating is limited. Please contact us at (570) 340-5204 in advance of your planned trip for arrangements.

There are 3 standard wheelchairs available for individuals who may have difficulty walking the museum complex areas; motorized wheelchairs are not available.  The wheelchairs may be signed-out on a first-come, first-served basis (no reservations), at the Visitor Center.  While there is currently no charge for wheelchair use, you must supply a valid photo driver's license as security.  Wheelchairs may not be removed from the Museum Complex property.

Parking is available for buses, motor homes and trailer-towed vehicles in the designated area of our main parking lot (access via Cliff Street). The Park grounds close at 5:00 pm and after-hour and overnight parking are not permitted. Designated handicapped parking in the main parking lot is available.
