MOOSIC -- A reminder to all viewers, WNEP-TV plans to pick up our new train set on Friday!

Road Scholar and Hale Trailer have offered up a trolley-themed tractor-trailer to help us bring it back to Northeastern PA.

Upon arrival in Northeastern Pennsylvania Friday afternoon, the train set will be taken to the Electric City Trolley Station and Museum, 300 Cliff Street, Scranton.

The train display will be assembled sometime next week.  It will be unveiled at a soon to be announced date.   The folks at HBO's Last Week Tonight with John Oliver have been kind enough to arrange sending someone familiar with the set to Scranton, to help put it together.

WNEP will be there with the big truck to pick it up Friday morning.
