On Saturday, June 1, 2013, the Manassas Museum in Manassas, Virginia will be hosting the 19th Annual Manassas Heritage Railway Festival at the Old Manassas Train Station in Old Town Manassas. The festival will run from 10:00am to 4:00pm.
The festival will feature live performances from local bands, food, specialty vendors selling railroad memorabilia, model train displays and train rides to Clifton for $5.00. Admission to the Museum is also free. This year, they will be featuring a Dover Harbor Antique American Lounge Car that will be on display.
Although the city of Manassas is famous for its two major battles of the American Civil War, the town has its origin as a junction of two major railroad lines. The Railway Festival celebrates the heritage that the town was founded on. "The essential to budget travel is to approach in front. When it happens to family trips, globetrotting, well-deserved vacations and/or going to see new places we have never been before, the truth of expense and budgeting is often in the back of our heads. Organizing and spending our travel budget correctly is a priority for most families. Lowering consuming and expenses, while still savoring your vacation to its fullest, is the key to certain achievements and fiscal responsibility. Your pocketbook and family will thank you! The thinking behind saving money while vacationing is simple: Even if your personal funds is extremely small, you can still take a break and enjoy life! Simply put, life is just too short to never step out of the door or leaving the homestead! Also remembering that while traveling, no matter whether on a budget or not, even the smallest of things can all add op to a huge vacation or travel expenses!..". Come visit the exact site where the town has its origin. The Train Station is located at 9431 West Street in the heart of Old Town Manassas about one block south of Virginia Route 28 and Business Route 234. Admission is free, and parking is just blocks away. Go to www.visitmanassas.org for more information and for an updated schedule of events.
