Awesome Companion to the CSS Neuse Museum
CSS Neuse II的点评
点评：Very cool companion experience to go along with seeing the hull of the original ship about a block away. Generally I don't find replica ships very interesting, but this one was different - there is no other place in the country that you can actually enter a full-scale ironclad model. There are smaller scaled ones (the Albemarle replica in Port-o-Plymouth) and full-scaled static displays that you cannot enter (the Monitor replica in Newport News), but none that combine full scale and access to the interior. The ship is only open on Saturdays, is free, and sells souvenirs for cash or check (no credit card). There is a lift for handicapped access, and stairs otherwise. There are also stairs inside the ship, which go from the gun deck (main deck) down to the lower deck. The stairs are the only option inside. The gun deck is 1/4 exhibits, 1/4 gift shop/staff booth, and half recreated gun deck, with a proper cannon replica and the pilot house dominating the center of the replicated section. The stairs leading down to the lower deck are not accurate, there would have been a vertical ladder to below in the original ship, but the stairs were added for accessibility to the replica. Below, there's a replica boiler, then signage and a few recreated compartments showing officer bunks, the captain's cabin, a workshop, and the galley/mess area. It is fun to explore around but does not take long to see everything, maybe 45 minutes total (both top, bottom, & outside). It was fun, unique, and interesting.
There is room for improvement, so I gave it four stars (though, as a free attraction, the fact this exists at all is fantastic - so these critiques are purely well-meaning). I don't think the construction techniques mirror the original methods, but I could be wrong - so the feel is more spatial than cosmetic. It would be nice to see additional items below, like more bunks, additional tables, a replica stove, rope coils, etc. It felt a little empty down there. Some of the signs were water damaged or just printed out on a piece of printer paper, which was kinda tacky. I also would like to see signage that explains the engine would have been below the stairs - that was confusing to me, seeing a boiler but no engine. I had to look at the plans and talk to the volunteer to figure out how it would have actually been.
All in all, this was 100% a worthwhile piece of our Kinston stop. We did the CSS Neuse Museum first, then walked over to the replica. The museum gave us great perspective on the ship's history and provided great context for when we toured the replica. Note the replica does close an hour earlier than the museum though. The walk between the two is about 4 minutes through a parking lot and across one road. We parked on the street across from the museum and left our vehicle there even while walking back to the replica. In Kinston, the replica (and the Neuse Museum) are must-do activities. Even if driving nearby, stop through!

翻译：非常酷的同伴体验，可以在一个街区之外看到原船的船体。一般来说，我并不觉得复制船很有趣，但这艘船不同——在这个国家没有其他地方可以真正进入全尺寸的铁甲舰模型。有较小比例的展览（普利茅斯港的雅宝复制品）和无法进入的全尺寸静态展览（纽波特纽斯的监视器复制品），但没有一个将全尺寸和内部访问结合起来。该船仅在周六开放，免费，并以现金或支票出售纪念品（不可使用信用卡）。酒店设有供残疾人使用的电梯和楼梯。船内还有楼梯，从炮甲板（主甲板）向下通往下层甲板。楼梯是里面唯一的选择。炮甲板是 1/4 展品、1/4 礼品店/工作人员摊位和一半重建的炮甲板，复制部分的中心有一个适当的大炮复制品和驾驶室。通往下层甲板的楼梯并不准确，在原船中会有一个垂直的梯子通向下面，但增加了楼梯是为了方便进入复制品。下面是一个仿制的锅炉，然后是标牌和一些重建的隔间，显示军官铺位、船长室、车间和厨房/餐厅区域。探索周围很有趣，但不需要很长时间就能看到所有的东西，总共大约需要 45 分钟（包括顶部、底部和外部）。这很有趣、独特且有趣。
还有改进的空间，所以我给了它四颗星（不过，作为一个免费景点，这个存在的事实真是太棒了 - 所以这些批评纯粹是善意的）。我不认为建筑技术反映了原来的方法，但我可能是错的——所以感觉比装饰更具有空间感。很高兴看到下面有更多的东西，比如更多的床铺、额外的桌子、复制品炉子、线圈等。下面感觉有点空。有些标牌被水损坏，或者只是打印在一张打印纸上，有点粘。我还想看到标牌，说明发动机应该在楼梯下方——这让我很困惑，看到了锅炉但没有发动机。我必须查看计划并与志愿者交谈以弄清楚实际情况如何。
总而言之，这是我们金斯顿停留 100% 值得一去的地方。我们先参观了CSS Neuse博物馆，然后走到了复制品。博物馆让我们对这艘船的历史有了很好的了解，并为我们参观复制品提供了很好的背景。请注意，复制品确实比博物馆早一个小时关闭。两者之间步行约 4 分钟，穿过停车场并穿过一条马路。我们把车停在博物馆对面的街道上，甚至在走回复制品的时候也把车停在那里。在金斯顿，复制品（和纽斯博物馆）是必做的活动。即使在附近开车，也要停下来！
