Gov. Quinn Visits The Museum!

Gov. Quinn in the Tinker library

We had a visit from Illinois Gov. Quinn on January 17th to announce a grant to help build an Amtrak station across from the museum. We will once again have trains running from Chicago to Rockford. There has not been a passenger train between the two cities since the 1970′s.

We thank everyone that came out to the press conference!
