Car Shop ExtensionCar Shop ExtensionThe ProjectThe Museum wished to be able to put most of its rolling stock under cover. In 2008, the Museum won the Mass Bay RRE's H. Albert Webb Grant, which gives $10,000 each year to a New England railroad project. This, with some additional support from the Museum's members, enabled the Museum to begin building a 30-foot extension to the first 3 bays car shop, thus restoring the original profile of the shop building.
Project leader is Zack Wyllie.
Current NewsWork is progressing to pour concrete for the floor.
