Midwest Electric Railway

Midwest Electric Railway The Midwest Electric Railway is a 501(c)3 non profit organization that is part of the annual Midwest Old Threshers Reunion in Mt Pleasant Iowa.

The Midwest Electric Railway Museum operates on the grounds of the Midwest Old Threshers Reunion, an annual agricultural heritage festival that takes place during the five days ending with Labor Day. It provides transportation on a loop about one mile long, which connects the main exhibition area with a smaller exhibition area called the Log Village, and a campground where many of the Reunion's vi

sitors stay. Besides the Reunion and the few days preceding it, the museum does not have regular public operating hours, as far as I know. It does operate on some special events, and charter excursions can be arranged.

We are excited to 1779 back up and running.
