Special Museum Train Display


This new museum display is a MUST to come see. It is a grand addition donated by Dr. M.A. Durst and his lovely wife who were long time residents of this town. He was the local dentist for many years (and my own dentist throughout my childhood) and both were active in community affairs. Mrs. Durst was on the library board for many years. The close up picture shows the library and my father's doctor office which is still next door but owned now by TRIMARK.
The train "travels" through Dr. Durst's hometown of Danbury, Ia. as well as Lake View and around Blackhawk Lake. This has been a special hobby of Dr. Durst for many years and this town is now blessed to have him donate it to the Lake View Historical Museum. It is like giving up your favorite toy. Thanks to both of you.
