The recreation of the historic Lincoln funeral train, and its route from D.C. to Springfield, Ill., is an undertaking of historic proportions. The historical research, the intricate details of building the train, the planning and execution for transporting the train across the country, and coordinating with cities along the route will involve a cast of hundreds.
We are looking for donations to help fund the building of the Lincoln funeral train, as well as costs involved in taking the train along its historic route to commemorate the 150th anniversary of Lincoln’s death.
