OUR VOTES COUNTED! is the theme for a brand new Bowdish Model Railroad Sound and Light Show featuring stories about voting in Jefferson County.
The layout includes a new engine and new models built by several talented Bowdish Volunteers. Volunteer Ken Wise, Harrisburg, used winter weekends to create a wonderful miniature of the Jefferson County Courthouse as it appeared prior to the 1927 addition of the west wing. You won't want to miss it.
There are new animations and the layout is now lower for easier viewing by all!
The Bowdish Model Railroad Sound and Light Show starts at 6:30pm the first Friday of each month. Shows run approximately 30 minutes and repeat until 8:00 PM. Check the Calendar and Events Page for other times and dates or contact the History Center at (814)849-0077.
Special shows can also be arranged for your group. A Bowdish Model Railroad Sound & Light Shows plus refreshments in our Meeting Room are perfect for class reunions, birthday parties, and organization meetings.
