Steve Gould, Tom McCullough, and Alden Burns from the Danbury Railway Museum will be presenting a brief history of railroading in Danbury and the museum itself. Started in 1994, the Danbury Railway Museum has been educating the public about railroad history for 30 years next year. Located in historic Danbury Union Station and Danbury Rail Yard, the museum sports a collection of over seventy-five historic artifacts, a functioning turntable, short train rides, a research and reference library, exhibits and displays, and so much more. During their presentation they’re looking to raise awareness about the museum, railroad history, and recruit new volunteers.
