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,
