| | | Join us on Saturday, March 23 at 10 AM for a special program on trains. Our Hands-On-History Learning Center will be transformed with model railroads and train-oriented play tables. Bob Bell in costume as the Railroad Baron leads the fun. Play with Lionel and G-scale sized trains, learn some secret train whistle codes and get your own whistle to take home. Make a paper engineer’s hat and play a piston game showing how a steam locomotive works. Learn how railroads got started and how locomotives and train cars changed over the years. This program is appropriate for families with pre-K through grade 3 children. We need to plan for adequate supplies, so please be sure to make your reservation as soon as you can but definitely by March 22. Just call 860-688-3813. COST: $6 adults, $5 seniors, $4 children, $3 members, $15 per family. For more information, contact the Society at 860/688-3813 or visit http://bit.ly/WHSTrainsKids for online registration.
