About 120 miles each way from New York City.
He drove from New Jersey which is about 110 miles each way.
I took the train between New York City and New Jersey to cover 10 miles.

My photos yesterday traveling from Hoboken New Jersey to Hamburg Pennsylvania.
My trip started from Queens New York to Hoboken New Jersey early in the morning.
Got up at 3 am and took Long Island Railroad train to New York City.
Took PATH subway train to Hoboken New Jersey.
Took NJ Transit light rail train to Liberty Park New Jersey.
Frank drove me to the train show from Liberty State Park light rail train station. We stopped at a diner in Clinton New Jersey.
He had breakfast but I abstained. I was not hungry.
I was still tired from getting up so early.
No photos until these in Clinton New Jersey. Restored CNJ Blue Comet observation car.
Interior of the CNJ observation car. Former Blue Comet car restored at this diner near the Pennsylvania border.
Back in his car heading to Hamburg Pennsylvania. Photo above is near Allentown Pennsylvania.
Only photo of the show I took. Was very tired so I forgot to take interior pics of the show.
Afterwards we left and passed the cemetery and church to South Hamburg Pennsylvania.
South Hamburg Pennsylvania train station. I remember visiting here when the Blue Mountain and Reading Railroad ran excursions.
After leaving Hamburg Pennsylvania we headed east back to New Jersey.
Before leaving Pennsylvania we went to see Frank's buddy in Allentown Pennsylvania.
To look at his friend's wonderful HO scale layout in his house.
Photos later. Afterwards we headed to New Jersey.
Photo above is at the Delaware River Water Gap section near New Jersey.
After over an hour we reached Frank's house. He invited me to see his own HO layout in his house.
He is fixing his layout so I did not take photos.
Then I thanked Frank and I returned to Queens New York. Many thanks Frank for a wonderful day with you.

After we left Hamburg Pennsylvania Frank drove me to his friend's house in Allentown Pennsylvania.
Beautiful basement layout in HO scale. About 70 percent scenery completed.
More photos later. Still tired from yesterday. Thankful that I am off work today.

More photos from yesterday.
HO scale layout that can be run as a continuous loop or point to point.
Movable small sections to work around the layout without bending down.
