Induction Ceremony attracts 250 attendees
By all accounts, the 2006 Induction and Awards Ceremony was a huge success, not only for the Transportation Hall of Fame, its Inductees and family members, but also for the NC Transportation Museum and the Town of Spencer, since the vast majority of the attendees had not visited the museum before, but pledged to return and spend more time.
