In The Engine Room Round
The steamboat Ticonderoga operated for 47 years on Lake Champlain in the early to mid-1900s. Now, the 220-foot “Ti” sits dry-docked outside the Shelburne Museum! The restored walking beam side-wheel passenger steamer is the last of its kind; you can see gilded ceilings, staterooms, carved and varnished woodwork, and a grand staircase. Down below, you can see a massive steam engine powered by boilers fired and stoked with coal from this Round storage bin.
