Members of the Jersey HiRailers and area trainiacs met at Marty Fitzhenry's house for a day of trains and friends in anticipation of the Amherst train show. See you all there. It will be a great day for a train show!

Thanks guys. When Alex built my house model from pictures two years ago, I always wanted this picture. Alex is a great friend and master model builder.

A great train day. Once again, toy trains are a great way to meet people you probably would never meet otherwise. Thanks, Marty and Dotty, for your hospitality.

I am glad you guys had a great time. I left at 2:30- drove over the new Tap and took a pick of the dismantled old Tap then paced Metro North when driving on the Saw Mill

Absolutely fantastic day at Marty's house running and talking trains. Couldn't ask for a better way to spend the day. We also had the privilege of meeting Oscar the Turkey.
