Golden Griddle progress

The Golden Griddle that is being built as part of the Imperial Hotel & Suites has new signs out. I didn’t get a good look at the interior, but from what I could see it is coming along well.

Niagara Falls Railway Museum

Welcome to the webpage of the Niagara Falls Railway Museum.

Our goal, through our ever expanding collection of railway artifacts and through this site, is to preserve and display the railway history of Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada.

The Niagara Falls Railway Museum is an interesting web site that tries to tell the story of the railway in the Niagara Region. They don’t have a permanent location, but the web site has lots of great information. The have a great photo gallery with some pictures that are almost 100 years old.
