The Jay Eggly Train Show
One of the most popular of our Holiday events, is set for Dec. 4-5 at the Music Pier, Boardwalk and
Moorlyn Terrace. The show is named after the late Jay Eggly, an Ocean City business man, who
suggested that we start the exhibit.
Train shows, Christmas and kids just naturally go together, and many adults have a warm spot in their
hearts for the colorful, miniature models.
The Ocean City Train Show and Sale features large working displays plus vendors that sell model
trains, parts and accessories.
A 10x20 ft. display will be exhibited by the South Jersey S Gaugers in the Solarium of the Music Pier
with four to five models operating simultaneously. Loading platforms and saw mills will be part of the
layout.
The stage of the Music Pier will highlight a working exhibit of Gauge 1 railway trains by the South
Jersey Garden Railroad Society. The exhibit is a favorite of children who like to sit on the stage and
watch large models circle through foliage and forest settings.
Dick Yard, an expert technician, will provide on the spot repair service.
Show hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sat., Dec.4 and 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Sun., Dec.5. Admission is
$3 for adults and $1 for children. Proceeds benefit Ocean City special events. There is plenty of free
parking on City lots close to the boardwalk.
