Colebrookdale Railroad Preservation Trust: Located in Boyertown, Not Pottstown

The Colebrookdale Railroad Preservation Trust does not have a facility in Pottstown. Its headquarters, restoration shops, and excursion departure point are in Boyertown, Berks County—about 6 miles northwest of Pottstown along the scenic French Creek valley.

Address

Colebrookdale Railroad
45 S. Washington St
Boyertown, PA 19512

What They Offer

• Heritage excursions (spring–fall): "Secret Valley" runs on restored 1920s coaches, pulled by vintage diesel/electric locomotives.
• Restoration shop tours (by appointment).
• Special events: Dinner trains, Santa trains, photo charters.
• Volunteer opportunities in restoration, operations, hospitality.

Why the Confusion?

Pottstown is the larger, better-known nearby borough (Montco). The railroad's right-of-way extends toward Pottstown, and some promotional materials reference the "Pottstown area." But the physical site is Boyertown.
