This is an awesome museum I had no idea was right here in York. It's an awesome walk through York history. My wife and I love museums and visit as many as we can where ever we go. We just love history and learning about the local history of any place we visit. This museum is amazing and is right here in York, about five minutes from the house. I was pleasantly surprised how well everything is laid out. Definitely a must see if your into local history or history at all!

Great trail -- changes name at the state line and continues to almost Baltimore. We parked at the county park at the new northern end (bathrooms!) but would have gone to the Route 30 trailhead if we had known about it. Had intended to park in downtown York but there's really no place for those who want to be out all day. 27 miles to the state line, 27 miles back. One suggestion: signage in all the town directing users to food and ice cream. Missing a chance to support local businesses!

First, get the tickets good for this place, the industrial history museum, and, when open, the Colonial center. Well worth it. The history center is well-done with some very significant artifacts, including a huge display of case clocks, a lot of Colonial items, and some good WWII era items. But, the real gem is the nearby industrial museum, which has a display of Pullman Automobiles, some other historic autos, and a lot of steampunk industrial items that were just pure fun! Very well done. The Colonial buildings were not open due to cold but we could at least walk past and admire them. This entire complex is one of the best American history centers I've visited out of many. Admission to all is $15 per adult. My wife and I plan to go back in better weather to do it again.
