Skyline Farm Carriage Museum’s current exhibit "Town and Country: Rocking and Rolling Down The Lane” showcases approximately forty unique business and personal cold weather, horse-drawn carriages and sleighs that would have been used during a typical New England winter. Sleighs were more likely used in the snowy countryside and wheeled vehicles in the warmer cities.

Of special interest, Skyline has recently acquired a rare Brewster & Co. Cee Spring Landau. This rather large, rare vehicle features a double-hooded roof arrangement which was great for summer or winter travel. Other vehicles on display include an original J.F. Hall sleigh built in Rockland, Maine, circa 1890, a double seat Albany, a sidewalk snow-roller, a heating contractor sleigh, a postal delivery sleigh, and a Buxton oil delivery vehicle. Oil and kerosene were once delivered to your home or business via a horse-drawn oil tanker!

Skyline Farm has partnered with Greely Middle School Art Teacher James Treadwell whose students created stunning three-dimensional paper snowflakes to hang from the museum's 1959 rafters to create a wintry ambience.

The museum, located at 95 The Lane, North Yarmouth, is open for public viewing on Sundays, from Feb. 6 through March 27, 1-4 p.m. or by appointment. Free admission; donations are appreciated. Dress warmly.
