By popular demand! Heritage Johnstown will open the beautifully decorated Johnstown Train Station for a Pop-Up Holiday Shop from 10:00 am-5:00 pm, during the Christmas Market at Peoples Natural Gas Park. Come by to enjoy the beautiful seasonal decorations in this spectacular building before renovations begin in 2026.

An installation of historic PRR model trains will be running, courtesy of Rick Truscello! We’ll offer free holiday crafts for kids, and a shop featuring a selection of Johnstown Christmas ornaments, small toys, Heritage Johnstown memberships (on sale during December!) and other gifts. We invite you to drop by, take pictures, enjoy the model train, and shop a bit. Welcome!
