Build A Train

The Cheyenne Depot Museum is celebrating International Museum Day, which is Sunday, May 18, 2008, with a "Build a Train" Project. Children are encouraged to create a train car using a shoebox. The train car may be any type of car, including an engine, coal car, passenger car, box car or caboose. The Cheyenne Depot Museum will display the "Build a Train" Project in the Cheyenne Depot lobby on May 18, 2008 through May 26, 2008.

In order to identify each child to each train car, the Cheyenne Depot Museum is requesting that the child's name, address, phone number and age on an index card, which should be attached to the bottom of the train car. Please deliver the train cars to the Cheyenne Depot by 5pm, Saturday, May 18, 2008.

The Cheyenne Depot Museum will also be waiving the admission fee of $5 for adults on Sunday, May 18, 2008 for International Museum Day as well. The Cheyenne Depot Museum will be open from 11am to 5pm. We invite the community to come and see the 2nd floor museum exhibit, which offers a "touchable" experience unlike any other museum exhibit in Cheyenne.
