Eastern Railroad Discussion > URHS Open House on the CMSL 4/23

These are some photos from Saturday's URHS Open House on the Cape May Seashore Lines in Tuckahoe, NJ.  (I posted a few videos this morning:  http://www.trainorders.com/discussion/read.php?2,4016214)  Despite the off and on rainy weather, I heard the even was rather successful.
