Beginning Tuesday, August 18, 2020, the park will prepare and paint the open metal shell buildings, referred to as "ghost structures,” and the train depot at the Blue Heron outdoor museum in Stearns, Kentucky. Crews will close and paint one ghost structure while all others will remain open to minimize visitor impact to the area. The Blue Heron train depot will remain open during the duration of the project, but small sections of the depot will be closed to perform necessary painting tasks.

The project is expected to be completed by early November 2020.
