The doors to the historic Essex Railway Station were opened to the public on Sunday as the annual Victorian Christmas Sale & More was hosted ahead of the holiday season.
Several vendor tables were setup inside the railway station for those in search for a perfect holiday gift for that hard-to-buy-for individual on their Christmas shopping list. Visitors could also support a bake sale the Bryerswood Youth Optimist Camp hosted, or hop onto the caboose onsite to play with a few train sets that were operating, while decorated for the holiday season.
Hosting events at the historic Essex Railway Station is always a good fundraiser for Heritage Essex, which maintains the facility. Opening the doors for an event also gives area residents and visitors a chance to see the inside of the building and view the items on display.
