Although this is a bit late, here are some pictures from our trip to the New England Wireless & Steam Museum this past June.
You'll see, Gene Andre & Ray Pagliarini standing next to
Tom Laferriere's (in the white t-shirt at the left) Stanley "735".
This car was assembled from a 1920 Stanley chassis, Baker boiler, and a Woods Dual-Power body.
There is a picture of the Baker boiler in Tom Laferriere's Stanley "735".
A picture of David Nergaard's 1922 Stanley with a custom body.
Dave is the Secretary of SACA-NorthEast has driven this car more than 54,000 miles
Also a picture of a torpedo body Ford Model-A .
A picture of some of some of the Little Rhody Model A club members cars lined up next to the 1822 Meeting House that was moved to the property in December of 1972. The building has been completely restored and features an antique reed organ, a gift from William Butler, and an early Hammond electric organ, a gift from Richard Hook. The bell in the steeple was removed from New Haven Railroad steam locomotive #1380 about 50 years ago by Rodney Bailey. This old meeting house and the internationally recognized National Register scientific collection sits in the 1988 nationally designated Tillinghast Road Historic District, and is an important part of our town, state, and country.
It is a beautiful church meeting hall, and well worth seeing.
Along with a picture of a Model A Coupe , which I believe belongs to a member of our Little Rhody Model A Club: Alan & Sandy Bowder from Jamestown
The visit to the New England Wireless & Steam Museum was very interesting.
