Jefferson County History Center
BOWDISH RAILROAD SHOW
The Bowdish Model Railroad at the History Center will take you back to the years between 1919 and 1955 when Jefferson County resident Charles Albert Bowdish invited people to his home at #8 White Street. His annual Christmas display was a treat for the community. The volunteers who created the new fifteen-minute sound and light show for the History Center had that in mind when they set out to create a Bowdish-like Railroad Show more than a year ago.
Lights twinkle on and off, roosters crow, tiny people move about, and the trains huff and puff in and out of tunnels. Your children and grandchildren are sure to find it as enthralling as people did many years ago.
The Bowdish Volunteers will run the trains on Thursday, November 29 at 6:30,7:00, 7:30 and 8:00 p.m., Friday, November 30 at 5:00, 5:30, 6:00, 6:30, 7:00 and 7:30 p.m. and again on Saturday, December 1, from Noon to 3:00 p.m. on the half hour.
