Rare steam engine to retrace Lincoln's journey to Gettysburg

A rare replica steam locomotive from Northern Central Railway of York will help recreate President Abraham Lincoln’s historic arrival in Gettysburg as part of the America250 event “Lincoln at Gettysburg: Shall Not Perish.” The William H. Simpson No. 17 will participate Nov. 18 in a reenactment of Lincoln’s 1863 journey, according to a community announcement. About 200 invited dignitaries and guests are expected to travel aboard the commemorative train. The oil-fired No. 17 is a replica of an 1860s Civil War-era steam locomotive and one of only 150 of its kind remaining nationwide, according to the announcement. The reenactment connects with Northern Central Railway of York’s own history with Lincoln. “The Northern Central Railway has a unique connection to Lincoln’s history, having transported him to Hanover Junction in 1863 before he continued to Gettysburg to deliver his historic address,” Ashley Zimmerman, executive director of Northern Central Railway of York, said in the announcement. “The railway also carried Lincoln’s funeral train in 1865, stopping in York on its journey to Harrisburg. These moments are an important part of our railroad’s legacy, and we’re proud to help preserve and share this history.” Actor Billy Campbell to portray Lincoln After the train journey,

PA official touts Lebanon County substance abuse treatment efforts

Pennsylvania Secretary of Drug and Alcohol Programs Dr. Latika Davis-Jones visited the Lebanon Comprehensive Treatment Center on Tuesday, Nov. 10, to highlight the need for expanding substance abuse treatment centers in rural areas. The secretary toured the treatment center's facilities with administrators and local leaders, and spoke with a resident about his recovery journey. Officials said the center serves more than 400 Lebanon County residents annually at its Schneider Drive facility. Davis-Jones told reporters that the Lebanon facility gives people access to outpatient treatment, counseling and connections needed to combat addiction. "We're excited that they are offering a continuum of services for individuals in this region, especially because we know here in rural settings (residents) need access," she said. The Lebanon Comprehensive Treatment Center is one of more than 750 licensed substance use disorder treatment facilities across the commonwealth. The outpatient drug and alcohol treatment facility delivers medication-assisted treatment, also known as MAT, to adults age 18 and older who are struggling with opioid use disorder. Center director Kylee Zeller said there are around 15 staff members working with the residents who come in and use the facility's services.

With a Pro-Reproductive Healthcare Trifecta Finally in Harrisburg, Lawmakers Must Act Decisively

Advocacy exists only in the realm of what’s possible and our fight for sexual and reproductive freedom has suffered too long in limited possibilities. For generations, all that was feasible in Pennsylvania was fighting off abortion bans, restrictions and attacks. In that time, nearly 90% of the abortion providers that were operating in the state had closed because of targeted laws that limited their ability to function. We saw crisis pregnancy centers pop up in every county and capitalize on gaps in sexual and reproductive healthcare and eventually outnumber legitimate abortion providers 9 to 1. Then we saw the fall of Roe v Wade in 2022, the absolute floor of our rights at the federal level.

Lebanon City Council advances 2027 preliminary budget with tax hike

Lebanon City Council members unanimously passed a proposed $19.7 million preliminary budget that includes a 1-mill tax increase, which is the first increase residents have seen in more than 12 years. Officials voted during a special public meeting Thursday, Nov. 12, to raise the city's millage rate to 5.581 mills. If finalized, the owner of a property with an average assessed value of $104,350 would pay the city $582 in 2027, a $103 increase from 2026. Mayor Sherry Capello said out of the 8,351 taxable properties in the city, 5,872, or more than 70%, have an assessed value of less than $104,350. "I don't want to minimize an increase in taxes, but I think we're not being extravagant," she told the Lebanon Daily News after the meeting. "This is the bare minimum to be responsible, to make sure we are proving appropriate services that the residents have asked for." The last tax increase for the city was in 2015. Capello said that while city officials have been frugal enough to move on without an increase over the last 12 years, the increase is needed to pay for the city's workforce, equipment, vehicles and infrastructure. "The 2027 budget addresses several long-standing
