Model train show on display in Bedford Hills through Jan. 28

The Bedford Hills Historical Museum is hosting a “New Model Train Show” on the lower level of the Town of Bedford building located at 321 Bedford Road, Bedford Hills.

The display is open Thursday and Saturday through Jan. 28, from 1 to 3 p.m. 

Visitors can see the HO Gauge model trains run on the track in the village that was built by the late Dr. Robert Bibi of Katonah and donated by his wife, Maria, and reinstalled at the museum. With the guidance of our board member and train aficionado, Rick Carmichael, members of the Olde Newburgh Model Railroad Club installed the HO-gauge set at the museum where it remains on display. 

The museum says the new model train display is great for kids of all ages and adults, and it’s free of charge.

IN BRIEF

Doris Karas built dream home in Pound Ridge half-century ago

Doris Karas

Doris Karas of Pound Ridge died July 31 at Greenwich Hospital, Greenwich, Conn. She was 99.

She was born Jan. 16, 1925, in New York to Charles Erath and Emma Schalk. She and her future husband, Gerald, grew up in Queens and met at a World War II canteen for service members in New York where she volunteered. 

They were married Dec. 7, 1947, and started their family in a ranch house in Massapequa, N.Y. In 1968, they built their dream home in Pound Ridge, having discovered the town 20 years earlier on a church camping trip to Ward Pound Ridge Reservation.

Her husband of 72 years died July 2020. She is survived by their children, Kenneth Karas (Katie), Keith Karas (Patricia) and Kristen Woll (David), as well grandchildren and great-grandchildren. 

Services were held at Clark Associates Funeral Home in Katonah earlier this month. She was buried next to her late husband Aug. 3 at Pound Ridge Cemetery.
