CCC featuring Blue Comet exhibit

On Thursday, March 3rd, the Camden County College Center for Civic Leadership and Responsibility will host the South Jersey Railroad Display Club’s exhibit on the historic train from noon till 6:30 p.m., followed by Camden County College alumnus Robert A. Emmons Jr.’s documentary “DeLuxe.”  The Blue Comet ran from Jersey City to Atlantic City from 1929 to 1941 on the Central Railroad. Known for its distinctive locomotive and blue-and-cream passenger cars, the Blue Comet was the pinnacle of travel to the Jersey Shore as well as one of the most memorable models created by the Lionel model train company.  For additional information about the event or to attend, contact the Camden County College Center for Civic Leadership and Responsibility by telephone at (856) 227-7200, ext. 4333, via e-mail at CCLRregistrations@camdencc.edu or online at www.camdencc.edu/civiccenter.
