Re: NY transit museum

Good picture - he's often in motion and we can't get a full look at him.

In the first stage Campbell's era we took vacation just before "tomato season".  (I think the Camden Campbell's plant shut down and everyone was supposed to take vacation at the same time). When we got back from vacation the tomato trucks rolled in and the party started for Pop. The words "tomato season" were frequently in the conversation during the summer.

This ad in an old rail car reminded me of Great Grandpop's stories of the long lines of trucks bringing tomatoes to the Camden soup factory back in the day.  We are with Matt Kelly and his daughter Clementine.
