This year the museum is working again with Exhibit Concepts and Swafford Construction to restore the BF Tower. The project has been supported by the Ohio Humanities Council, The State of Ohio general Assembly to create a Railroad Heritage Tourism Destination.
The project includes both interior and exterior exhibits to interpret the function of the tower in providing Railroad Safe traffic through the junction. Signals will be restored and operational from the BF Tower. Details are on the museum website at www.bradfordrrmuseum.org
