SUMMARY:The Rabbit Run Railroad: An Art and History Project
DESCRIPTION:On Tuesday\, April 16 at 7pm at the Clapp Memorial Library\, Ken Levine of Petersham\, an artist and railroad fan will present a program about the Rabbit Run Railroad\, his creation of a 24’ diorama at the Swift River Valley Historical Society in North New Salem\, and a brief history of the era of steam railroads in America. \nThe 4 Lost Towns that the creation of the Quabbin Reservoir required removal of were the inspiration for this memorial to those communities who were forced to relocate in the early 20th century. Using archival photos from the archives of the MDC and other sources\, Ken spent over 5 years creating a miniature recreation of the Swift River Valley\, its towns\, farms\, industries and landscape\, including working HO model trains of the steam era\, 1871-1930\, the Rabbit Railroad. As the train journeys from South Athol to Enfield the seasons unfold and the various towns go about their business. In a brief video using Go-Pro mini cams on the trains you are actually aboard the train as it winds its way along the Swift River\, which completes the illusion of riding the Rabbit. \nA NBC Boston Affiliate interviewed Ken for a movie\, The Scar which was shown on TV and relates the story of the Quabbin and the Swift River Valley and the Lost Towns. Also\, the SRVHS Facebook page has the video of the diorama and other information about the history of the Quabbin Reservoir. \nProgram made possible by the Friends of the Clapp Memorial Library
