Although Harpers Ferry is not a large city, it has an Amtrak station with daily passenger service. Commuters use it to travel to Washington, DC.
I've parked near the station more than once. There are a couple of snack shops nearby and historical museums a short walk away. At the moment the museums are closed for the government shutdown. It's not far to shops and a wax museum, but the hilly terrain can turn your walk into a workout.
Are you affected by the government shutdown? Find Your Members of Congress and contact them.
I just bought some old postcards and one of them was of the train station at Harper's Ferry. I seem to have found quite a few from your beautiful area. Now I want to visit in person!
ReplyDeletePretty pictures! I haven't been affected by the shutdown so far.
ReplyDeleteI have always wanted to visit Harper's Ferry - had no idea how convenient it was w/Amtrak service and sites within walking distance! Now I have no excuse:)
