My friend at the park managed to piece together all of the first five Lionel Knoebels boxcars as well as the original engine and caboose for me, so it'll be doing holiday duty around the tree this year!
Merry Christmas!

That is great. I have seen pics of a Knoebel’s car before, but I never knew they had a whole train. We used to go to a 4x4 show in Bloomsburg every summer, and Friday night was almost always spent at Knoebel’s.
Now, for those of us who have never heard of "Knoebels", what and where is "it"? I did get a nice ride around Bloomsburg, PENN. in a 1940 Studebaker President while looking at another car, but there are other Bloomsburgs. Presume it was not a historical business that ran billboard reefers in steam era ?

Knoebels started 1926 and is a family friendly amusement park in Elysburg Pa, approx 10 miles south from Bloomsburg Pa. nestled in a valley. Free parking, free admission, food prices are reasonable. You can buy tickets for the rides you only want to go on. Two amusement train rides, Pioneer train ride approx 1/2 mile long, and Old Smokey a live amusement steam engine you can ride. You can spend all day there w/the family and not have to remortgage the farm.
