N.C. TRANSPORTATION MUSEUM "STARS" IN "LEATHERHEADS" FLICK

SPENCER, N.C. When rail fans and residents of Spencer and Salisbury flock to see the George Clooney movie "Leatherheads" opening today, they might keep their eyes peeled for glimpses of the N.C. Transportation Museum. Known for evoking America's bygone romance with trains, the site was used by Universal Pictures for the film. "Leatherheads'" final scene even features megastars Clooney and Renee Zellwegger silhouetted against the museum's historic backshop and its "Be Careful" sign, as the characters ride away together on a vintage motorcycle.

  • I love NC and Transportation "spacifically trains" And i've been to this museum, the gold coast railroad museum,the london transport. museum,the nc railroad museum,south hill modle railroad and doll museum,and I am still trying to go to all the transportation and railroad museums in the world.

  • I have been there twice so far, going back this coming weekend with my son again for his birthday, there is an antique tractor show there the first weekend in april.. yall come out, i will try to post some video of it.

  • Number 4 is getting there, but slowly.

  • get a new boiler for 1925.

  • The 604 (4) still needs more money to complete it's rebuild. The 1925 needs part of the firebox replaced and new flue tubes, but work on it won't start until the 604 (4) rebuild is finished.

  • how's 1925 and 604 (4) doing?
