🌟 Sunday Spotlight 🌟
Today we’re stepping back in time to shine a light on two of Peterborough’s hidden gems – the YMCA History Rooms and Meldonfield Miniatures!

πŸ›οΈ Peterborough YMCA History Rooms
Did you know the Peterborough YMCA was originally built in 1927 to house single railway workers? Today, it stands as a lovingly curated museum filled with local treasures. Explore restored rooms, historic displays, and the incredible Lionel Noble Photo Collection, offering a rare glimpse into life on the railways.

🐎 Meldonfield Miniatures
Tucked inside the YMCA is this magical collection of handcrafted 1:12 scale models by Eldon and Mary Zimmermann. From horse-drawn carts to a stunning replica of the old Petersburg Railway Station (built using salvaged materials!), this exhibit celebrates pioneer ingenuity and craftsmanship.
$7.50 only to enter Meldonfield! I true craftsmanship worth browsing.
πŸ“ Location: 106 Main Street, Peterborough SA
