Mechanicsburg is a lovely town in eastern Cumberland County, located just half an hour from both Harrisburg's downtown district and the tourist attractions of resort town Hershey. Visitors can catch dirt track car races at the Williams Grove Speedway, explore the gorgeous preserved historic buildings of the Mechanicsburg Museum, enjoy shopping, dining and visiting various farmer's markets throughout various times of the year. The train still runs through downtown Mechanicsburg, so you may see or hear it if you are driving through the area!
