All:
In order to start reconstruction of the Historic Oyster Bay RR Station which is destined to become the headquarters of the Oyster Bay RR Museum (OBRM), We had to move out and get the building empty.
We were able to secure a store within a few hundred feet of the station at 102 Audrey Ave in Oyster Bay and have created a museum & gift shop within. This "Preview Center" is a mini museum which gives us somethings we do not currently have at the station, heat & a restroom. One of the trustees is the Curator for the Cradle of Aviaition n Mitchel Field and he has crafted many fine displays, some which are interactive for the kids. Our evening opening (by invitation only) was well received and the center was packed for that night. Our Grand opening the following Saturday was also very well attended from 12-5 and we were (and still are) the talk of the town. We will be setting our hours for the center and will post them here ASAP.
