This photograph from the local newspaper was taken one of the years I rode the train to Atlantic City. I can't identify any of the passengers anymore, but perhaps one of them might have been me. |
A newspaper flyer telling of the Lancaster's Grocers' Picnic to Atlantic City. This was from before I was born, but you can still see the train schedules. Click to enlarge. |

The Italian Village at the end of the Million Dollar Pier. The best deli sandwiches ever. There was an organ grinder with a monkey that would tip it's hat if you gave him anything more than a penny.
ReplyDeleteJoe, I remember those deli sandwiches too. Delicious deli meats and cheese on a fresh well-baked chewy long italian roll. Plus a cup of tomato salad that you could dip your sandwich in. So good, old school authentic cuisine on the Million Dollar Pier. Tony
ReplyDeleteYes, I can remember the train ride and how much time it took to get there. It seemed like hours. It didn't impressed me at all.
ReplyDeleteMaybe it was my age. I was quite young.
