DEPTFORD, New Jersey (WPVI) — Jeffrey Norcross has been collecting and curating a museum of American history for more than 30 years.
And each year, he rolls out antique toy trains from his childhood for all to see.
This year marks the 23rd Annual Antique Toy Train Show at The Museum of American History at Deptford, NJ.
At present, Norcross is displaying three of his timeless trains from the mid-20th century, which still impressively roar across the tracks all these years later.
The train show is a gateway to the rest of the two-story museum, which features agricultural artifacts, fossil specimens, glasses and bottles, pieces of Pine Barrens history, and more.
Norcross, an archaeologist, proudly excavated many of the items himself at 161 sites in 16 states.
This year’s train show will run through February 1, 2026. Then, an art show will launch at the museum from March 8th through the 22nd.
