About the 1837 Norris 4-2-0 Steam Engine
Across from the CSX caboose is a full-sized replica of an 1837 Norris 4-2-0 Steam Engine, the "Lafayette," currently being built by volunteers at the museum. This mammoth project was started during the winter of 2018 as the beginning of the celebration of the museum's 25th Anniversary on April 13, 2018. To date, all of the major parts are in place. The cylinders are being fabricated, and the siding for the horizontal boiler is ready to install. It is most exciting to see this engine "come to life!"
