Michigan State Trust For Railway Preservation

The Steam Railroading Institute, located in Owosso, Michigan, is dedicated to preserving and educating the public about steam-era railroading in the Great Lakes Region. Home to the iconic Pere Marquette 1225 locomotive, the Institute actively engages visitors through events, excursions, and hands-on activities that celebrate the history and technology of steam locomotives.

With a mission to restore and operate historical rail equipment, the Institute is also in the process of restoring the Chicago and North Western 175 locomotive, adding to its unique offerings. Visitors can experience the thrill of riding behind steam locomotives and participate in special programs like the popular North Pole Express during the holiday season.
