National Trust for Historic Preservation's awards for 2004. Didn't see any RR subjects listed, but there was a steamboat. Did I read that right that one group got $52,000 to restore a Buffalo Bill Wild West Show paper poster?

This program put $500,000 into the B&O Museum recovery in 2003.

Folks,
There was only one maritime museum and no railroad museums listed as far as I can see.

does anyone know if the Seashore Trolley Museum got a grant for the #31, the first ever preserved trolley?

It is a good program though, there is way too little Federal grant money for historic preservation these George W days!
