Mike,
I like to idea of a replica flag stop. If we go to the time and effort of building it and the heritage village does not succeed, it would give us the option to move the building back to the museum and reuse it, perhaps as a section house or a station once we reach Route 218.
Lots of ifs to work through here. I understand back channel that a member of the board is looking into this project. If he finds it's a workable situation that could benefit the museum and if the board supports the project (given the many other important priorities to operate, maintain and grow the museum), I'd be very interested in helping with displays, etc. for this project. As discussed in this thread, I'd like to see as much of this project as possible done through the efforts of us "away" folks, as the regulars have plenty to do on the everyday tasks and existing projects to keep the museum going.
