FROM THE CANISTEO VILLAGE HALL:
The Big Boy Steam Engine is coming through Canisteo and we’re excited for this historic sight! Please keep these important safety tips in mind when viewing in Canisteo or the surrounding areas:
• Stay back at least 25 feet from all railroad tracks
• Railroad tracks, trestles, yards, and right-of-way are private property – DO NOT TRESPASS.
• Never assume tracks are abandoned or inactive – ALWAYS expect a train.
• Be a safe and considerate driver – do not pace the train.
• Be aware of your surroundings – we expect increased pedestrian traffic along roadways, so please SLOW DOWN.
We expect the train will depart Hornell and head toward Canisteo on Thursday, 6/11 at approximately 2:30 PM.
You can live track the train route anytime here.
