Some of you are saying, “Interesting.  I have never heard of the town of Plymouth, Indiana, and I have never heard of Marshall County.  It is a good thing that they have this museum.  If not, nobody would know about Marshall County.  There is one problem.  This museum is a county museum and not a railroad museum.  Therefore, you will not see me visiting this place.”
