Bath Sophomore Kris Shields has been working on some renovations at the Lincoln Park Rail Depot as his Eagle Scout Project for Bath Troop number 82. He headed up a project to paint two rooms in the depot making sure all needed materials and volunteers were in place to complete the project in 4 days. Shields says it was hard work but well worth the effort.

Boy Scout Kris Shields explains, “I feel really good about it. Knowing that I helped make it so much, that much closer to being available for the public to come and look at it. It is actually really a great thing.”

The depot was moved to Lincoln Park in 1964 and is now part of the John H. Keller Memorial Lincoln Park Railway Exhibit.
