Frank Sprague is an unsung electrical genius who was born in Milford, Connecticut. People traveling today in modern trolleys/streetcars/trams are doing so courtesy of his inventions, and anyone taking a train into Grand Central Terminal in New York can see another of his inventions, from 1903, in daily use. To find out more about this remarkable man and his influence on modern transport, join Shore Line Trolley Museum volunteer Tom Laurenson on August 29th. And what could be the connection between Frank Sprague and the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art? Find that answer too!
