1939 World Fair

[NW Mailing List]

Mark - Thanks for the memories.  I saw the 1939 Worlds Fair (with my  
parents, of course) and was just old enough to remember the railroad  exhibits.  I 
still have the brochure from 'Railroads on Parade' with B/W  photos of eight 
steam locos; including an N & W Class A (incorrectly  identified as a mallet) and 
PRR's S-1.
 
Incidentally, the operating O scale layout 'Railroads at Work' featured  
rolling stock lettered on one side only.  The track plan was such that the  
audience could never see the 'back' of the cars.  Used to have that  brochure also, 
but lost it when we moved to southern NJ in 1950.
