Osher Lifelong Learning Institute, FAU’s New Summer Series of Lectures.
Join us at Old School Square in downtown Delray Beach as Dr. Feeney presents Henry Flagler’s Dream: The Railroad that Went to Sea
Ever wonder what it would be like to take a train journey over the sea? Henry Flagler’s railroad did just that.
Dr. Feeney, dressed as a train conductor circa 1915, will take you on a trip through the history of Florida railroads, including the destruction of Flagler’s dream by the Great Hurricane of 1935. He will also show original artifacts from the golden age of train travel and present anecdotes regarding early rail travel in Florida.
