Railroaders Museum
Submitted By: Karen
This museum is really cool. My husband and I are really into trains, and we checked it out on a trip to Horseshoe Curve. There's an interactive exhibit that lets you type in your last name to see if any of your ancestors worked on the PRR. I typed in my maiden name, and this woman who was also there came up to me and said "Is it really you?"Turns out she was my freshman-year roommate! What a surprise! I guess it really is a small world!

A first-class ride through Pittsburgh
Submitted By: CJ....
Head on over to Oakland and check out the Carnegie Museums. Get a great view up on Mount Washington. Another really cool part of town you have to see is the Strip District---and if you've never had one, a sandwich from Primanti Brothers is a must.

Steel City culture....and ice cream, too!
Submitted By: Carl..
Start early. Pittsburgh's got a lot goin' on, and you'll need the extra time to check it all out (the city owns the Superbowl title, ya know, so pay attention to it!).
