Our Current MAJOR Projects
Our projects include the restoration of the Mill House to what
it would have looked like in 1920. Most work has already been completed but
ongoing maintenance is required. Yates Abernathy is the chairman of this project
and would love to have your help.
The Stowe Park Special Train and
Shed/Display Area. The shed was originally a wagon/car shed of the main house.
It is being converted to a shed to store/display the ORIGINAL Stowe Park
Special. The Stowe Park Special is a 1951 Miniature Train Company G16 model
train. We have begun restoration of the engine, but not renovations to the shed.
In the photo you can see one of the passenger cars of the original train.
The Outdoor Kitchen. The RL Stowe house was built without an indoor
kitchen as all cooking was done over wood stoves or open fires. The kitchen was
always housed away from the main house to avoid fires. This restoration project
has not begun due to limited resources and manpower.
