Admission to the Rail Festival is $5 for adults and children 10 years of age and younger get in free. Parking is free for both the Fostoria Rail Festival and the Fostoria Iron Triangle Swap Meet.

Of these attendees, they have represented 18 different states, hundreds of cities, and two different countries.
In addition to attending the Rail Festival, guests can visit the Fostoria Rail Park, which includes the Iron Triangle. The Fostoria Iron Triangle Rail Park is a 5-acre tract directly inside the three double-track mainline freight rail lines that meander through Fostoria. Open 24/7, this park provides a 360-degree viewing platform that allows one to experience the sights and sounds of the 60-plus trains that pass-through Fostoria daily.
