This
tour pamphlet was given out to visitors aboard REQUIN when the sub
was in Tampa. It folded out to an 11" x 17" sheet, which included
a diagram of the compartments visited on a tour. When I was aboard
her in Tampa in 1974, you could go anywhere (except for the sonar
shack), including into the conning tower. At that time, REQUIN was
in pretty good shape, but would suffer through neglect, leading to
her closing in December of 1986. |
Each year at
the Carnegie Science Center, REQUIN is featured as the main exhibit
for various scientific topics. And each year, different tour pamphlets
are given out to visitors aboard REQUIN, providing some brief facts
regarding REQUIN's history.

The
first tour pamphlet, October of 1990. This pamphlet reflects the
times that REQUIN was open for visitors, which was only a brief
period, as the science center still had a lot to do to get REQUIN
ready for the first year of tours.

The
second tour pamphlet, given out in 1991. Basically the same as the
one given out in October of 1990, REQUIN was still only open for
visitors during the spring, summer and fall.
