Merry Christmas Blog Followers,

Empire City Station on the New York Central Train Layout has been extremely busy this year with numerous passenger trains from several different railroads arriving and departing. First up we see the New York bound premiere passenger train of the Pennsylvania Railroad the Prestigious Broadway Limited.  An arch rival of the New York Central's 20th Century Limited the Broadway was a worthy competitor. The PRR train master has gone the extra mile to make today's Broadway Limited the train to be remembered.
