      Really nice vintage railroad safety pins Ted. My grandfather was a car repairman foreman for the LIRR (Long Island RR) and had lifetime passes for himself & wife, if we kids went along we rode free with them :)

      Hi, Jenni.....thanks for the love and the interesting comment. we lived near a Lackawanna train yard. My Father had a bar, which many of the trainmen visited. It was an interesting life back then! Got these in a box lot at an auction....I go in for such nostalgic items.....
