Welcome to the online version of our special exhibit, “A Look at Railroad Communications” which will be running “live” in our Bartlett Gallery from now through October 2021. The admission fee for the exhibit is included in the cost of a museum ticket thanks to the generous support of TDS Telecom and the New Hampshire Humanities. Obviously, there is no cost to view it online (although, it’s not quite the same!) but if you would like to make a donation to the museum, please click on the donate button below.
This exhibit is part of a larger collaborative effort of the MUSE Group (MUseums Sharing Experiences) entitled, "All Aboard! Economic, Social & Environmental Change During New Hampshire’s Railroad Era" and was scheduled to run in 2020 only. Due to the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic, however, the exhibition got a late start and is looking a lot different than we had originally planned.
