You bet, Tom, sorry you can't make it, this is a good program and a popular subject matter in the Quakertown area. Even for those who may have seen Mr. Bell's presentation in other venues, they may want to see it again. The program haas been fine honed and has some additional material as well as a number of display items from the collection of Roger Lewis and myself. Proceeds benefit the Quakertown Train Station Historical Society. Best regards, Don Fenstermacher |

Just made a correction to the phone numbers given as a source for information. The first number will get you through directly to J&D Whistle Stop (during store hours), I previously had the station's number which would have gotten you an answering machine. I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused anyone. |
