The
Midwest Central Railroad brings the excitement of rail travel 100 years
ago to life behind authentic steam powered trains. Join us in our
enjoyable and educationally-rich endeavors for a future full of steam
in Mount Pleasant, Iowa.
Our
mission is to preserve and commemorate railway heritage for the
educational benefit and enjoyment for current and future generations.
We aim to
accomplish this through live action of our engines and rolling stock as
well as educational displays and tours of our operation. You can become
a volunteer and share our enjoyment of history.
