New Virtual Tour Aboard Flagler’s Overseas Railway
A year after Key West Art & Historical Society unveiled a newly renovated “Overseas to the Keys: Henry Flagler’s Overseas Railway” permanent exhibit at the Custom House Museum, its virtual counterpart is now available to researchers, students, historians, history buffs, and Flagler fans all over the world. The Society’s new online exhibit, “Henry Flagler’s Overseas Railway Timeline,” is a multi-media experience created by Annette Liggett, Brewster Chamberlin, and Society Curator Cori Convertito, Ph.D. that details the construction process of the engineering feat that joined mainland Florida to Key West in 1912.
Visit kwahs.org/education/overseas-railway-timeline to explore the “Eighth Wonder of the World,” and check back for additional related online features and downloadable curriculum that will be launched over the coming six months. Supported by a grant from the William R. Kenan, Jr. Charitable Trust.
