We visited the park Saturday, from 10:00 a.m until 4:00 p.m. There was a lot to see! I decided to keep the NCR story for a separate post, so here are some random photos of interesting things we saw that day.
This is a steam pump. It reminded me of something Jules Verne-ish, which is very cool!
This is the Corliss Engine. It supplied both electrical power and steam heat for the National Cash Register Company from 1902 to 1948.
This view reminded me of a scene like the end of "Planet of the Apes". It was a little disconcerting to see this clock tower, which I was used to seeing on the top of building in town; and here it was sitting on the ground!
Then there was the old train station. Inside, it reminded me of the old Fort Washington station, where I used to wait for the train to take me to work in Philadelphia.
Nice memory.
