The other prototype buildings include the Fishing Bridge Museum and the Madison Museum.

Museum of the National Park Ranger
Another historic structure that was actually torn down on site and rebuilt staying true to the original design and using the same construction materials, the Museum of the National Park Ranger is housed in the Norris Soldier Station.  

• Location - Located ¼ mile east of Norris Junction just off the Grand Loop road
• Open - Late May through late September
• Hours – 9:00 am to 5:00 pm daily
• Services – The exhibits here trace the development of the professional park ranger. There is a video shown during the summer season at regular intervals.

 
The staffing at the Museum of the National Park Ranger consists largely of retired National Park Employees. They are an interesting group of people to talk to who have lived the history of the professional park ranger first hand.
