One of the train&#8217;s first stops will be Oct. 3-5 at the Fort Wayne Railroad Historical Society, located at 15808 Edgerton Rd. in New Haven.<\/p>\n<p>The Indiana Bicentennial Train consists of three 65-foot renovated Amtrak freight cars and features a free traveling exhibition, The Next Indiana (designed by the IHS exhibitions team). Originally known as the Indiana History Train, it has welcomed nearly 58,000 visitors at 24 stops in communities across Indiana from 2004 to 2008. Other 2013 stops include Kokomo (Sept. 26-28), Valparaiso (Oct. 10-12) and Delphi (Oct. 17-19).<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the exhibition, temporary &#8220;depots&#8221; are set up at each venue to provide an enjoyable, comprehensive experience. Visitors can participate in hands-on activities, vote on their favorite Hoosier innovation, catch a 1916 interpreter presentation, engage in a community creativity space and purchase items from a pop-up History Market.<\/p>\n<p>The Bicentennial Train and its accompanying activities are all free and open to the public, operating 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. each day, and every visitor will receive a complimentary pass to visit IHS&#8217;s Indiana Experience at the Eugene and Marilyn Glick Indiana History Center.<\/p>\n<p>Visitors to the New Haven stop will also be able to experience restored steam locomotive no. 765, a unique and important part of Indiana&#8217;s railroad history owned and operated by the all-volunteer Fort Wayne Railroad Historical Society. Built in 1944, the 400-ton locomotive became an Indiana Historic Landmark in 1996 and regularly pulls passenger excursion trains throughout the country, hosting travelers from all 50 states and around the world.<\/p>\n<p>Group reservations are available by calling (317) 232-1882 (space is limited). Local volunteers are also still needed to assist with the Indiana Bicentennial Train&#8217;s visit to New Haven, with three shifts available each day (9 a.m. to 12 p.m., noon to 3 p.m. and 3 to 6 p.m.).

The New Haven stop is sponsored by the City of New Haven, Indiana Michigan Power, NIPSCO and Steel Dynamics. Local partners include ARCH, Inc., Fort Wayne Railroad Historical Society, New Haven Chamber of Commerce and Visit Fort Wayne.
