Railroad and Trolley Museum closing for Central Station development

MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- A popular South Main attraction is closing its doors, but hopefully for only a short time.

The Memphis Railroad and Trolley Museum, located in the Central Station, closed its doors Friday as workers set to start a $55 million construction project at the historic building.

A short article about the planned adaptive re-use of Memphis Central Station appears below.  BTW, the Wilson family patriarch, Kemmons Wilson Sr. was the founder an American iconic hotel chain:  Holiday Inn.
