Welcome to the Museum Committee

Welcome to the FCV Museum Committee page.  We have begun a program that will lead to the opening of a 12,000 square foot railroad museum in Meadville, on July 1, 2015.  The museum will include an outdoor display of equipment, displays providing information on railroad history in the French Creek Valley with artifacts and interactive exhibits, an operating model railroad depicting the Meadville rail facilities circa 1945 - 1955,  a theatre, a gift shop, and an archives/research area. We expect to have preliminary architectural drawings displayed here soon.  Stay tuned!

The design of our proposed Museum is styled to resemble the orginal Meadville Passenger Station shown above.
