All Aboard Bordentown Railroad
History-filled day features a talk and walk that explores the Camden & Amboy Railroad, New Jersey's first railroad and one of the oldest continuing train rails in the nation. The program also celebrates the State of New Jersey's recent announcement to repair the historic 1831 Farnsworth Avenue Stone Arch Carriage Bridge and Tunnel, the oldest carriage bridge built over railroad tracks and in continuous use in the United States. The program's guide is Pierre Lacombe, a Camden & Amboy Railroad expert, member of the Bordentown Historical Society, and retired U.S. Geological Survey geologist. Additional train historians and officials also participate. Old City Hall, 13 Crosswicks Street, Bordentown. www.facebook.com/OldCityHallRestoration
