Carillon Historical Park

Today I was able to go on a field trip with Megan's class!  We went to Carillon Historical Park!

Carillon Historical Park houses so many neat things!  The original Wright Flyer III, the first automobile self-starter, the 1855 B&O (Grasshopper) steam locomotive, TWO of the original bicycles made by the Wright Brothers (only 5 left in existance).

The Dayton area is home to inventions such as the cash register, the automobile self starter, and of course the first airplane!


Replica building of the Wright Brothers bike shop!

We got to ride this little train!

Inside the bike shop...the bike at top of pic is one of the original bikes!
