LAMBERTVILLE — Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends will be chugging back to the Lambertville Justice Center on March 3 from 10 a.m.-2 p.m.
Donald Lotz will bring his working Lionel train layouts featuring Thomas, Percy and James to the Justice Center. Sponsored by the Lambertville Free Public Library, this special annual event for train fans young and old offers a free indoor family activity day.
For those who can be persuaded to leave the running train area, wooden Thomas playsets also will be available in the wide open space of the Justice Center, plus Thomas movies and train crafts. Children will receive some train handouts to take home while adults enjoy reminiscing about their own model railroading experiences.
