Maintenance-of-Way Tool Shed

This maintenance-of-way tool shed was constructed soon after the N.Y.P.&N. Railroad was built from Pocomoke City, Maryland to Cape Charles, Virginia in 1884. It was used by the section gang for the storage of tools and equipment used in the construction and maintenance of tracks and roadbeds between New Church and Tasley, Virginia. In 1991, supporters Joanne and Johnny Kirkpatrick donated the building to the Museum, and families of former railroadmen donated artifacts in the building to the museum.
