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

Oct 25, 2024

Scotts Corners Water District approved

Property owners in Scotts Corners on Thursday have voted to create a water district. The vote was 20 in favor and 15 against.

A total of 35 of the 36 eligible stakeholders cast votes in the special election, which was held at the Town House from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.

The question, a straight up-or-down vote, read:

“SHALL the resolution adopted by the Town Board of the Town of Pound Ridge, Westchester County, New York, on July 2, 2024, approving the establishment of the Scotts Corners Water District in said Town (“Water District”) and the improvements proposed for the Water District to connect to the water supply owned and operated by the Aquarion Water Company, at an estimated maximum cost of $11,129,000, with $7,789,000 expected to be paid with a grant from the New York State Environmental Facilities Corporation and $3,340,000 expected to be issued of general obligation bonds and/or notes of said Town, to be payable by benefit assessments upon the properties in said Water District, BE APPROVED?”

Scotts Corners, Pound Ridge’s business district, has faced water troubles for years from septic systems and a fuel leak from a service station. A more recent problem, the discovery of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, also known as “forever chemicals,” in the water made the district’s creation more urgent, at least to some.
