Description

Brooks Historical Society maintains and operates the historic Brooks railroad depot, now relocated to the grounds of Powerland.

The objective of the Brooks Historical Society and Depot Museum is to educate and stimulate an interest in and knowledge of the history of Brooks, Oregon, and the surrounding areas.

brooks-historical-society:
Our Society formed in 1986 with a mission to educate and stimulate an interest in and knowledge of the history of Brooks, Oregon, and the surrounding area. We moved our museum building, the late 1800s Brooks Train Depot, to Powerland in 1989, and have been working to restore it as it was when it was a working Depot. Original 12 inch planks with all the marks of age make up the floor of the freight room, where we collect artifacts from farm, school and home life that are relevant to our area.
Our recently repainted and redecorated Agent’s office gives a feeling of walking back into the past.

Brooks Historical Society also was instrumental in developing the Heritage Rose Garden and the Farm house exhibit at PHP. And our recently donated caboose will eventually become our society office. We also collect local family history, make video interviews of local residents about their life and times, provide history books for sale, and have information about heritage roses, ghost towns, family histories, cemeteries, transportation in the area and many more subjects.
Radiomuseum.org presents here one of the many museum pages. We try to bring data for your direct information about all that is relevant.
