Museum Land Acquisition

We are currently in the process of searching for a single physical location for our Museum collection.  As we are on rented space at this time, we have limitations on maintaining, operating and accessing our fleet.  Also many of our coaches are located at various locations in Ohio.  Because of this situation, we are unable to schedule regular viewing hours as we would like, the collection has received some vandalism and it is difficult to arrange times to work on the collection.  In addition we may be forced to scrap many of the historic coaches that we have collected in order to be able to keep our Museum alive if we are forced to maintain a rented site.

Our goal is to obtain enough land to be able to operate and securely store the coaches as well as build a small maintenance/restoration garage and small library building to house the Museum archives.   This goal needs your help to become a reality.

Please consider making a tax deductible donation to our Land Acquisition Fund so that we can secure a permanent home for our collection.  Your help will help ensure the Museum will be around to continue the preservation effort of our transit heritage.
