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.

September 11 remembered

Activities and ceremonies took place this week to remember those lost in the Sept. 11 terror attacks, and to recognize first responders, including at schools and fire departments.

On Sunday, the Vista Fire Department held a wreath-laying ceremony at the department’s 9/11 monument. On Wednesday, some 75 people gathered at the Pound Ridge Fire Department to pay respects to those who died, including civilians, military members and first responders who rushed into the burning buildings and did not return home. Speakers also recognized the additional deaths caused in the months and years afterwards — still ongoing — by the rescue and recovery conditions at ground zero.

Among those participating were local, county and state officials, and religious leaders. Lily Vollen, a Pound Ridge seventh-grader, read a poem she composed about Sept. 11, titled “Broken Mirrors.”

Pound Ridge Fire Department's September 11 memorial service was attended by religious leaders, government official and featured an original poetry reading by 7th grader Lily Vollen.
