On November 3rd, the Lakeport NH Freight House Museum held its grand opening. It took the Lakeport Community Association 15 years and nearly $100,000 to restore the Freight House, upgrading all utilities and improving the structure, complying with building codes and making it handicap accessible. A boxcar has been added on a rail siding.
Inside are memorabilia of the Boston & Maine Railroad, Annie Oehlschlaeger's railroad collection, Bob Fortier's vast memorabilia collection and scrapbooks, delicate Victorian clothing presented by the Richardson family, and all things Lakeport.
The website for the museum is: http://www.lakeportcommunityassociation.org/index.htm
