Dashing Through The Woods
Saturday, December 05, 2015
Join your fellow NYRRE and ERA members for an old holiday favorite. We will ride the New Jersey Transit Morris & Essex Line from Penn Station to Convent Station in Morristown, New Jersey for lunch at Rod’s and a ride on the Whippany Railway Museum’s elegantly-restored 1927-era Central Railroad of New Jersey club car, ‘Jersey Coast.’
Upon arrival in Morristown, we will walk (for less than 10 minutes) to Rod’s Steak & Seafood Grille for an early lunch. You will be able to choose either soup or house salad for your appetizer, Caesar salad, imported penne pasta and chicken, crab cakes or petit mignon for your main course, and coffee or hot tea for your beverage. All other beverages are extra.
After lunch, we will travel by motorcoach to the nearby Whippany Railway Museum in Whippany, New Jersey to view their equipment and ride in their club car (on a space available basis; overflow passengers will sit in the coach car).
