Now you can enhance your visit or enjoy our museum from home with our new app. It’s like having a docent in your pocket giving you personalized tours of your choice. Come back often to see what new tours are available!
The Village is all about your visit back in history … to a time soon after Maine became a recognized state in 1820, in that powerful period between the mid-19th and the mid-20th centuries when America – and Maine – became an industrial powerhouse – largely on the backs of small 24” gauge trains that lugged supplies and workers through narrow, out of the way passages to early settlers hungry to grow their villages and towns bursting with goods for export.
This Village is about how you feel when stepping back in time. What you learn about how far Mainers have come. How smooth and sleek the fender of a vintage auto is under your hand. What you remember about your childhood in the face of the mesmerized youngsters sitting across from you, hanging out the train windows, their hair blown backwards.
