School Trains
The Abilene & Smoky Valley is a living history museum, dedicated to teaching about the railroad’s impact in building Kansas and the U.S. We run special Meadowlark Flyer school charters where kids can learn while they ride our historic rails!

Donation Station
Our treasured steam locomotive, ATSF 3415, is due for her federally mandated 15-year overhaul. Help us fund this process and other capital improvements to continue sharing the history of Kansas railroading with the next generation.
