Descrizione

Text from Wikipedia 3/2012:
America On Wheels is an over-the-road transportation museum located in Allentown, Lehigh County, Pennsylvania in the United States.

The museum's collection features over 75 bicycles, motorcycles, automobiles and trucks in exhibits telling the story of people and products on the move from the days of the carriage to the vehicles of tomorrow.

Collection and exhibits
1889 Nadig Gas-Powered Carriage

A historically important part of the museum's collection is the 1889 Nadig Gas-Powered Carriage, one of the first gas-powered vehicles driven in the United States.

Henry Nadig, a German-born mechanic living in Allentown, built his gas-powered carriage in 1889, two years before Charles E. Duryea's first gas-powered automobile. Police forced him to drive the carriage at night, because the carriage scared horses. The vehicle was discovered rusting in a collapsed shed in Allentown, and restored.

General collection
The collection of the America on Wheels is minimal as the majority of the vehicles on display are on loan. The West Gallery changes every six months based on a new theme. A number of the vehicles are on loan from the Mack Truck Museum in Allentown, Pennsylvania.
