 Our
purpose at the Cole Land Transportation Museum is to collect, preserve,
and display (before they disappear forever) a cross section of Maine's
land transportation equipment from which this and future generations
will gain knowledge of the past.
 We
also wish to remember, record and display U.S. military memorabilia
to forever remind this and future generations of the high price
our comrades have paid to protect our freedom
In doing so, we hope to inspire and challenge the young people of
today to continue on in the footsteps of pioneers who have built
our state and country.
