Ashland Train Day Returns for 21st Year Ashland Train Day returns for its 21st year in historic downtown Ashland on April 26, 2025, thanks to Virtual Railfan, Amtrak, and CSX. From 11 AM to 4 PM, the town known as the Center of the Universe will transform into a railfan’s paradise, where locomotive history meets small-town charm for a day packed with interactive experiences, family fun, and a deep appreciation for the iron rails that built Ashland.
