Event Description:
“Vroom: Toys on the Go” features items from the extensive collection of the late Steve Castelli. Over the years Steve amassed an extraordinary collection that ranges from bikes, tricycles, pedal cars, models, remote-controlled boats, farm machinery, fire engines, tether cars and hot rods, to toy wagons, airplanes and trains. His collection still includes his own childhood toy trucks from the 1940’s and 50’s in pristine condition. It is curated by Steve's daughter, Tina Castelli. This year, the Castelli exhibition is enhanced by a model train display by another collector friend of the Museum. Model Train enthusiast Wayne Padd has set up a festive vintage model Lionel Train set and village, including a scale model of the Healdsburg railroad depot. The O-scale train will be running to delight visitors of all ages.
