Not too far from Hershey is the Strasburg Railroad, where you can ride a train pulled by a steam locomotive. Right across the street is the Railroad Museum of PA.
When in the area, we always make sure to get a meal at the Shady Maple Smorgasbord. If you go, go hungry.
Some great suggestions in this post. The Railroad Museum is excellent, as is Strasburg RR. I've never eaten at Shady Maple, but if it is on par with other food in the area, I am sure it is delicious. All of this is in the heart of Pennsylvania Dutch country.
