Check out the Narragansett Bay Railway & Navigation Co., a 1:48 scale On30 modular railroad that is on display in the Masin Conference Room, located in the Thompson Exhibition Building. As a narrow gauge short line, the NBR&N winds its way through the marshes, and sand dunes to small ports along the fringes of Rhode Island's fabled Narragansett Bay. These narrow free-form modules of coves, inlets, and bays showcase short early 20th-century trains lumbering through a maritime Southern New England coastal environment. Although the NBR&N is fictional, its inspiration comes from the nearby narrow gauge lines on both Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket as well as the extinct standard gauge Providence, Warren, and Bristol branch of the New Haven Railroad. This show by the Mystic Seaport Ship Modelers will run from Friday, February 14, to Monday, February 17, from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and is included in Museum admission.
