The 2024 PCRRHS Annual Convention was held September 19-21 in Marion, Ohio. Marion was the junction of three rail lines operated by four railroads north of Columbus in central Ohio, with the Chesapeake & Ohio and Norfolk & Western crossing the joint east-west Penn Central-Erie Lackawanna main line through the city. Today it remains a busy place under CSX and Norfolk Southern.

Members visited the restored Marion Union Station and AC Tower. On Saturday members visited the Marion Industrial Center, home to a ex-PC SW1500 locomotive.
