We own and operate 4 motor cars, including a one of a kind Lehigh and New England Sheffield 40B. We operate these motor cars aka speeders for the enjoyment of our members and the public. We get dirty, we get tired, we have fun. As our slogan says "SO CLOSE, ONLY THE PAYCHECK IS MISSING."Mikehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06317421587751828500noreply@blogger.comBlogger51100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2016778171446163340.post-88211653613589252982011-11-02T10:09:00.003-04:002011-11-02T10:12:36.797-04:00

Well it has been a while since we updated this blog! It was severely underused in the past and I think we can change that.The VRA ran a very successful Motorcar trip this past weekend at the Cape May Seasore Line.
