The work just never ends at the Museum. We will have a crew out there working Wednesday, Thursday morning, and Saturday, with the potential for Friday as well.?Work scheduled for this week is the scraping and painting of the north and east walls in the office display area.? This will help freshen up the room, and make it even brighter with the new LED lights. Other work going into the weekend will be to get working on the new display/store boxcar as it needs to be ready by the May open weekend. Over the summer we will be doing more track work as well, fixing up some rough spots, and lifting the track in a few low spots.

The Museum is also looking for a few items in addition to those listed at the beginning of the year.? We need some ABC fire extinguishers, 100lb track material (rail, turnout parts, bars/bolts/plates), switch ties. Also still looking for a caboose, or baggage car/coach, and any local railway artifacts or photographs.

Some of our new store items.

Looking across the drop table at the Plymouth last Saturday.

We have some new items for sale in the store.? There are 4 hard plastic signs for the NYC, GT, TH&B and Ontario Northland. These are selling for $8. There is also a new Great Northern pin, white goat on the blue background, and that is in line with our other pins at $4. Also thought we would try pink engineers hats which are available for $12. And finally, 2 DVDs, CN 6060 is $24 and A Last Look At Steam is $20.

The Niagara Railway Museum is always looking for new members/volunteers to help out with the many projects we have on the go.? No experience is necessary, we will do all the training needed at the shop.? Please contact us for more information.
