Hi Sue,
Greenfield Village has a huge amount of technological artifacts running
for visitors to interact with, including a full machine shop, weaving
looms, and Model Ts people can ride in (replicas?). Last time I was
there, they were in the process of restoring a Jacquard Loom.

Hi all,
Do you know any museums that have technological artifacts (especially
cars / planes etc) that they display in working order, or even let
visitors use? A colleague is doing an international study on the issues
around this, from the maintenance angle as well as the visitor
experience side.
Thanks for any pointers to museums or people....
Sue
