American Treasures Tour Museum - Oaks, PA

[Brooklands]

What do you do when you buy a former B.F. Goodrich Tire Factory? An anonymous person has put his personal collection of pop culture in the one near Philadelphia. You walk through the first two rooms, then take a narrated tram ride through the rest. This place has so much stuff, and only one or two of the cars are restored. If you are near the area some weekend, be sure to fit it in your schedule. I took my camera (no one is surprised), and my photo album of the museum and collection is on Flickr.

Great photos of a great tour! (and some memories are better left "original" than gussied up to look like new.)

Who knew? ... The Link Automatic Piano Company sired the Link Trainer for pilots. Amazing.

Thanks Dave.

I agree Tom...
but dusting once in a while is okay too.

I am planning to go back again and ride the other side of the tram this time.
