N.C. Transportation Museum - A Centennial Celebration
2024 marks the 100th Anniversary of the completion of the Bob Julian Roundhouse at the North Carolina Transportation Museum in Spencer. To celebrate the occasion, we visit NCTM during the annual Historic Spencer Shops Train Show!
We'll see some of the layouts and models on display, before switching focus to the real trains outside - with day and night action!
If you'd like to visit NCTM or volunteer to help them continue their preservation efforts, please visit: www.nctransportationmuseum.org!
Thanks for Watching and Keep On Steaming!
