I went to Arlington Heights Historical Society Museum to check out their dollhouse collection. They took place at Banta House – more information here.
Before I go ahead and share the pictures of the dollhouses, their wooden miniature model of Arlington Heights Train Station really caught my eye!
It is believed the actual Arlington Heights Train Station was built in 1892 between Dunton Avenue and Evergreen Avenue. Here is the postcard photo of the AH train station — and a wonderful photo cover of this book!
The interior is shown here with an electric light on.
Also, I’ve found a signed giclee print of Tom Lynch’s watercolor painting of historical Arlington Heights Train station! A neat find!
