Step back into Revolutionary War history with The Noble Train Arrives! In the harsh winter of 1775–76, Henry Knox led a remarkable expedition transporting 59 pieces of artillery from Fort Ticonderoga to Boston, passing through the towns of the Berkshires. This incredible feat of endurance and ingenuity became a defining moment in America’s struggle for independence and is remembered as one of the great turning points of the Revolution.
