2015 NC Region Fall Meet Reports 

Spencer, NC – Saturday Oct. 17, 2015

The 2015 NC Region Fall meet was again hosted by Furnitureland Chapter on the grounds of the NC Transportation Museum in Spencer, NC on October 17, 2014.  There were 88 entries including HPOF, DPC, and Class Judged vehicles. The cool sunny weather was near perfect for a car show. The Furnitureland Chapter members again planned an excellent show.  They had laid out the field, arranged for a food vendor, directed parking, and provided a meeting room for the Board Meeting.  The vehicles that entered the show were excellent examples of vehicles in their class.  New Chief Judge, Randy Stone  received the applications and organized the judging assignments.  The judging was done by NC Region members and was completed between 11 am and noon. After the judging was completed the NC Region Members enjoyed lunch, viewed the cars and trucks and traded stories.   At 3:00 p.m. the Awards were presented by Jack Harris and the Furnitureland members.  There were several new Red Birds and repeat preservation awards were presented along with repeat HPOF and DPC judging results. Continuing their past years trophy theme, the Furnitureland Chapter arranged to have a flat bed train car hauling hauling a trailer.  Denny Oestreich

Bill Cox, N.C. Region Vice President’s Report

October is such a beautiful month… especially here in North Carolina where we have crisp Fall days with plenty of sunshine and fresh air. The day of the N.C. region Fall Meet in Spencer certainly did not disappoint us either as it was just about a perfect day to be outside. We were blessed with great weather, a full array of interesting vintage vehicles and a bunch of us old crazy car people!

The Spencer Transportation Museum was the perfect venue for the show. It seems to me that there is a lot of activity at the museum as there were more restored rail cars to see and the museum is moving forward with additional building projects and exhibits. If you haven’t been, you should make it a day trip to do so… even if there’s not a first class car show like we experienced that day.

I’ll let the pictures speak for themselves… if you didn’t get to join us, I hope you enjoy them.

The NC Transportation Museum

The NC Transportation Museum is located on the site of what was once Southern Railway Company’s largest steam locomotive servicing facility. J.P. Morgan, Southern’s owner, chose the site because of its location midway between the railroad’s major terminal points of Washington DC and Atlanta GA. Construction of the Shops began in 1896, and they were named in honor of the first president of Southern Railway, Samuel Spencer.

During its peak, Spencer Shops employed nearly 3,000 people, which directly and indirectly provided most of the jobs for the towns of Spencer, East Spencer and other surrounding Rowan County Communities.

With the advent of the diesel locomotive, Spencer Shops went into decline. The repair facility closed in 1960, but the classification (freight) yard remained open until the late 1970’s.

In September 1977, Southern Railway donated four acres of the site, including these buildings, to the state of North Carolina. A second donation in 1979 included several additional historic structures and land. The entire site was eventually placed under the administration of the Historic Sites section of the North Carolina Department of Cultural Resources.

The first exhibit area opened in 1983. Numerous restoration and exhibit improvements have occurred over the years, resulting in the museum’s growth in size and popularity. The museum broke its annual visitation record in 2001 with 129,597 visitors, surpassing the old mark set in 1999 by nearly 15,000 visitors.

The NC Transportation Museum Foundation, a support group for the museum, was created in 1977 and is a key factor in the museum’s success. More than $2 million in transportation artifacts have been acquired through the group’s efforts. Foundation members and volunteers assist in the restoration and operation of these artifacts, which include trains, airplanes, trolley cars, wagons and automobiles.

The museum and the Foundation achieved restoration success with the completion of the Roundhouse, exhibits, Barber Junction Depot, turntable, parking lots and overhead bridge in 1996. The total cost of the restoration projects was $8 million.

The NC Transportation Museum Foundation continues to pursue funding for the Back Shop project, as well as artifacts and rail equipment that keep the museum moving.
