Frostburg carriage museum recalls late 19th century
A Frostburg museum displays a New York built 1889 carriage from the James Thrasher collection, centerpiece of Allegany County’s carriages and sleighs. The county acquired the collection for 450000 dollars after Thrasher’s 1986 death, with plans to exhibit the rest in Cumberland. The display includes Roosevelt’s inauguration carriage and a Vanderbilt sleigh as part of a broader regional transportation heritage effort.
