Manheim and Lititz Study a Strasburg Excursion

Passenger trains between Manheim and Lititz are an idea, not a timetable. LancasterOnline reported on November 2, 2026, that steam engines could lead trips between the two boroughs on event days if the Strasburg Rail Road buys the line for its freight division. A working group called the Heritage Railroad Initiative is exploring that possibility with the railroad and with Lititz-area businesses. The paper said there is no timeline, that Strasburg representatives declined to comment, and that Norfolk Southern did not respond.

PRIMROSE — Schuylkill United Way’s 2027 Campaign raised $1,149,196 , surpassing last year’s total and supporting its Partner Agency programs and services throughout the coming year. The organization announced the results during its Annual Appreciation Breakfast at St. Nicholas Hall in Primrose, where donors, volunteers and businesses were recognized during United Way’s 90th year of service. The campaign is named for the year its funds are used, meaning contributions pledged during 2026 will support programs and services in 2027. “We are over the moon with the effort and generosity that this number holds,” said Campaign Chair Andrew Umphrey, a business banking relationship manager at M&T Bank. United Way Board President Mark Mikita credited the campaign’s success to the community’s longstanding willingness to help its neighbors. “We always pull together when there’s a need and this campaign is no different,” Mikita said. Joe Bessette Receives Lifetime Achievement Award Among the breakfast’s top honorees was Joe Bessette, maintenance area manager at the Wegmans Retail Service Center at Highridge, who received the Billie Payne Lifetime Achievement Award.

Abington Defeats Lower Dauphin in Round 1 of State Playoffs

11/11/26 — After a heartbreaking collapse in the District 1 championship, some might’ve expected spirits in Schwartzman Stadium to be dampened heading into the opening round of state playoffs, but in reality it was anything but. The final home game of the season for the Ghosts, and the final home game ever for the seniors who have been a part of one of the best eras of any sport here at Abington, was packed with supporters ready to assist the team in bouncing back. And bounce back they certainly did. Abington dominated this game from the opening minutes, but remained scoreless for the first 19. That changed when Sam Arruda found the back of the net and put Abington up 1-0 to the delight of the massive crowd. For the remainder of the half the defense remained strong, but the offense couldn’t get back on the board and we entered halftime at 1-0 Abington. The Ghosts wouldn’t wait as long to score this time around, with the goal coming on a crosser to Arruda for his 7th goal of the postseason, expanding the lead to 2-0. After assisting Arruda’s second goal, Jaza Vasquez had to get in on the scoring. He did it by himself too, getting through two defenders and Dauphin’s goalie to put Abington up 3-0. This was all but the end of the action, as the Ghost defense locked down and finished the shutout.
