Steamtown NHS allows visitors to get up close and personal with the historic machines and the men and women who run them.

The Park is open daily except Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day and New Years Day. Park hours are 9 am - 5 pm through January 5, 2008, and 10 am - 4 pm from January 6 - March 29, 2008 (regular Park hours resume March 30, 2008). The Park's museums and grounds, including outdoor exhibits, parking areas and the connecting walkway to the Mall at Steamtown, close promptly at 5:00 pm (4:00 pm, winter). Also, during severe weather events, the Park may delay opening, close early or close entirely.

(Please note that the connecting walkway to the "Mall at Steamtown" is not the property of Steamtown National Historic Site and is subject to closure during inclement or severe weather. This walkway is generally closed during the winter months. Parking at the "Mall at Steamtown" is, therefore, not recommended.)
