About Steamtown National Historic Site

A wedding at Steamtown National Historic Site in downtown Scranton surrounds you with steam locomotives, a working rail yard and a roundhouse with a turntable. For your wedding photographer and videographer, few places in the region offer this much drama: iron, steel and brick, and engines that move. The park itself describes the heat from the firebox and the sound of the whistle, and a wedding film can carry that sound in a way still photos can't.

The National Park Service lists wedding ceremonies among the activities that need a Special Use Permit, and some still photography and film projects need one too. Permits are reviewed by the superintendent's office, which looks for a meaningful connection between your event and the park. Applications need at least 72 hours, and most take up to 14 days, so apply well ahead of your wedding day. Large events may also need insurance.

It is an active rail yard, and the park asks every visitor to follow its safety rules. Ask the park which areas you may use for a wedding ceremony or wedding photos, and how the train ride schedule on Fridays through Sundays affects your timing. The park is open daily from 9:30 am to 5 pm, and the entrance is at Cliff Street and Lackawanna Avenue.

  • Apply for a Special Use Permit early, using the park's short form for basic requests.
  • Ask which parts of the rail yard and roundhouse you can use.
  • Ask your photographer and videographer to visit with you on a weekday first.
