Steamin' Day at Auburn Heights COPY
Experience the sights, sounds, and excitement of the steam era during Steamin’ Days at the Marshall Steam Museum at Auburn Valley State Park! Held on the first Sunday of each month from June through November, this family-friendly event brings history to life with rides, demonstrations, and hands-on fun for all ages.
Climb aboard antique automobiles powered by steam, gas, and electricity, ride the Auburn Valley Railroad’s 1/8-scale trains, explore the museum’s world-renowned collection of Stanley steam cars, and enjoy interactive exhibits and kids’ activities throughout the day. Visitors can also watch a live steam car firing-up demonstration and, for an additional fee, tour the beautifully preserved 1897 Auburn Heights Mansion, home to three generations of the Marshall family.
Steamin’ Days offers a unique opportunity to experience early transportation technology in motion while enjoying the scenic grounds of Auburn Heights. Food vendors, vintage popcorn, train rides, and historic vehicles make this one of the region’s most memorable summer and fall traditions.
