The Cochrane Historical Museum has been closed since the onset of the pandemic. Lynda Alderman, of the museum committee, had the idea for a popup museum display at the Cochrane Library.
Mike Taylor, Lonnie Basiuk, Shannon Want and Lynn Ferguson followed up on the suggestion with the train station diorama and information board to be in the library for the next couple of weeks.
Lonnie also brought along his father’s conductor uniform.
Dave and Diana Hardiman, the creators of the diorama came by to approve the move.
It appears we’ll be able to open the Museum this summer so please make a trip to the Museum part of your plans. If you’d like to get involved please contact us.
This is a great way to share our communities rich heritage!
