The Boothbay Railway Village celebrates Father's Day, Sunday, June 15 with free admission and train rides to all fathers, grandfathers and great-grandfathers when accompanied by their little ones on Sunday, June 15.

On Saturday, June 21, admission to the first ever Family Fun Day will be free for anyone under 18. The museum will also roll out the red carpet for kids of all ages on Family Fun Day (including the young at heart) with free rides in a Ford Model T and a 1936 Dodge Fire Truck (originally in service in Augusta, Maine) along with a scavenger hunt, storytelling and other fun stuff for the family.

The Boothbay Railway Village, situated on 30 acres in Boothbay, is a nonprofit 501(c)3 museum dedicated to preserving Maine’s railroading heritage, interpreting the evolution of the automobile during the early twentieth century, and conserving architecture and objects that tell the story of Village life in Maine from 1850-1950. Museum guests are invited to step back in time to ride the rails behind an authentic steam locomotive, surrounded by historic Maine buildings preserved in a recreated village. The highlight for many visitors is the superb collection of 60 antique automobiles from a 1902 Rambler to a 1962 Rolls Royce.

The village will be open from 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. with hourly train departures between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Admission to the Museum is $10 for adults, $5 for children. Museum Members are free. Well-behaved and leashed four-legged friends are welcome. Contact the Boothbay Railway Village for more information at 207-633-4727, or online at www.railwayvillage.org. The Boothbay Railway Village is located at 586 Wiscasset Road, Route 27 in Boothbay.
