There’s a lot of history in Maine, but we typically think of it as natural history. There’s the history of people who came before and the history of how this state was founded. There’s also the kind of history that exists in the restaurants, bars, and shops that have made small Maine communities thrive for decades. Today, though, we’re talking about the kind of history that has helped us get to and from all of these places. Check out this fun, unexpected museum!

Each car comes with a story, and it’s so much fun to learn where it might have been. Visitors are encouraged to explore on their own or choose to walk through with one of the docents who have tons of knowledge.
