 “The Glenbrook is such a noteworthy and rare piece of rolling stock. We wanted to recognize this as a significant and major restoration,” said Aaron Isaacs, a historian at the Minnesota Streetcar Museum and awards committee chair for the group, which represents museums in North America. “This is one of only two winners selected. We considered more than 40 projects done this year and we chose the Glenbrook because it stood above the others.”
