 | Skyline Farm Carriage Museum’s current exhibit "The Evolution of Comfort” tracks the developing technology and style from early vehicles, such as its Comfort “Waggon” dating back to the late 1700’s when George Washington was President, through to the end of the horse-drawn carriage era when automobiles came on the scene and Teddy Roosevelt was our 26th President. By Roosevelt’s time, carriages offered leaf springs, inflatable tires, and plush seats, all features that carry over to today so we can ride… in Comfort. The museum, located at 95 The Lane, is open for public viewing on Sundays, now through June 25, 1-4 p.m. or by appointment. Free admission; donations are appreciated. For more information, email info@skylinefarm.org. Skyline Farm is a nonprofit, all-volunteer organization. |
