The Henry Ford Museum

During our visit to Michigan we stopped by The Henry Ford on our way south. This was one of the major highlights of our trip and really enjoyed everything we got to see there. They have so many incredible exhibits to enjoy, truly something for everyone there. This is a long run video but shares our experiences at the museum and many of the wonderful exhibits on display. We did not get to see the Greenfield Village as they said it was closed for there season.

    Sorry you missed Green Field Village; it is a wonderful place. Definitely need to make it back there. If you do make it back you should also tour the Rouge plant where they make the F150's. My wife rolled her eyes when I suggested we go there but it turned out to be the highlight of her trip. It is a very well-designed tour and much more than just a factory tour.

    We SO enjoyed your video of the Henry Ford Museum. I’ve been there several times in the past but it looks like it has changed a lot since the last time we were there. The locomotive engine was made in my hometown, Lima Ohio. I marvel at the genius of the early inventors who made machinery that performed various tasks but yet had nothing to essentially make them with since nothing had really been invented to make them. Those are real pioneers. Henry Ford had to make his own power in order to operate his factories since there wasn’t power available. That’s real ingenuity and perseverance. The true pioneers of which he was one. Keep making such amazing videos. You bring so much enjoyment and entertainment to many who may never have the opportunity to visit such places. Thank you and safe travels.

    I was so mad when they tore down the old Lima locomotive plant so they could essentially have a vacant field instead.

    Glad you finally made it there. Been going off an on for many years. It's an awesome museum but it had far more stuff in it 25 years ago and was a better museum back then. But the Village is far better today than it was back then other than the paddle wheel boat no longer doing rides around the little island.

    If you ever come back, let me know and I will get you in. I worked security there for a couple of years. We were always encouraged to explore. There is so much to see, even I never saw everything. The village has some very interesting things to see. Fewer items than the museum, but more buildings to see.

    Was the massive 1941 Allegheny locomotive upstairs or downstairs in the museum? I just keep thinking how in the world does the floor support such a monster of a locomotive. Thanks you guys. You both are my favorite and the perfect ones to show us around a museum. 😊

    The massive steam engine is on the ground floor of the Henry Ford museum. If there is a basement it maybe a secret.

    1:05:25. The Rosa Parks bus is incredibly important. However, the history behind it is also important, and I hope the display got it right. I did not know until a few years ago was that she was not just some random tired lady on the bus, she was a longtime NAACP activist who had been kicked off the bus by the same driver in the past and was expecting to be arrested. The famous photos of her sitting on the bus and getting fingerprinted etc were taken months later. There had been one or two other women arrested on buses, but the leadership did not champion them because they had potential “character flaws” in their view and so they went with Ms. Parks because she was exemplary, and they felt beyond public reproach. So, a major milestone in the Civil Rights movement, but not as random and unexpected as it has been portrayed.

    Adam & Abby; 2 nd comment today; You were interested in the early Maudsley lathe. Search “The Origins of Precision “ on KZread. Very good examination of the beginning of your Precision Mathew’s CNC lathe. about the first known lathe that’s in Paris, France now.
