Arabia Steamboat Museum

In 1856 the steamboat ARABIA (#0311) was snagged and lost on the Missouri River below Parkville, MO. 132 years later the boat was rediscovered. The Arabia Steamboat Museum is featuring artifacts and the tragic history of the steamer Arabia.

Sibylle Randoll (check out her website Explories) provided some pictures from her visit to the museum to give an impression of this fantastic museum, including the cover image above. Thanks, Sibylle!
