Northwest Railway Museum - Restoration Center

Restoration Center

In August 2006 the Museum dedicated the new Conservation and Restoration Center (CRC), phase one of the Railway History Center. The CRC is a place to perform collection care on large rail artifacts including locomotives, coaches, and freight cars. It features 8,200 square feet (760 m2), two full length inspection pits, and is used to perform many functions once conducted in railroad backshops.

Famous quotes containing the words restoration and/or center:

    “I claim that in losing the spinning wheel we lost our left lung. We are, therefore, suffering from galloping consumption. The restoration of the wheel arrests the progress of the fell disease.”
    —Mohandas K. Gandhi (1869–1948)

    “I don’t think America’s the center of the world anymore. I think African women will lead the way [in] ... women’s liberation ... The African woman, she’s got a country, she’s got the flag, she’s got her own army, got the navy. She doesn’t have a racism problem. She’s not afraid that if she speaks up, her man will say goodbye to her.”
    —Faith Ringgold (b. 1934)
