Description
A National Endowment for the Humanities exhibit about modes of transportation. The exhibit coincides with the 150th anniversary of the Butterfield Trail. "What a wonderful way to celebrate the trail's legacy by bringing this exhibit to Dallas." says Terrell Falk, Old Red Museum President. She continues, "With the environmental and monetary costs of today's transportation making headlines, it is important understand the transition from carriages to autos as we look toward future advancements in transportation." Carriages-not cars-once ruled the road. These forerunners of automobiles and trucks were absolutely essential to American life in the 1800s. Carriages came in an amazing assortment of sizes, shapes, and finishes, from the buckboard phaeton to the sidebar buggy to the booby hut.
General admission is $8, Children ages three to sixteen are $5 and Seniors are $6. Admission to the Going Places exhibit without general admission is $3 for adults and $1 for children.
