WARWICK — So you wanted to be an engineer?

On Sunday, Dec. 7, from 1:30 to 3 p.m. the Albert Wisner Public library will host a "virtual" ride on the re-created Lehigh and Hudson River Railway and the book launch of Paul Miller's "Tracking Down the L&H RR: New Milford to Maybrook."

Walter Conklin will present the "Tristate Route," a train simulation that will take you to the stations and businesses of yesteryear.

Miller will give a Powerpoint.

"The program will provide a fascinating glimpse of the engines that could - and did - build our community, just in time to inspire your own holiday train display," said Sue Gardner, the local history librarian.

Open to all adults and attentive older children.
