Valley Forge station

Valley Forge station is a former railroad station at the Valley Forge park in Pennsylvania. The station was completed in 1911 by the Reading Railroad and was the point of entry to the park for travelers who came by rail through the 1950s from Philadelphia, 23.7 miles (38.1 km) distant.[2] The station building was restored in 2009 and is now being used as a museum and information center that offers visitors a better understanding of Washington's headquarters and the village of Valley Forge.[3] Constructed of the same type stone as Washington's Headquarters, the building was erected on a large man-made embankment overlooking the headquarters site.
