Train Robbery

  • Post author:

Talk about low: at Baby Z’s request, we took a stroll through Wallingford Center last night to play with the train table that has graced the hallway for as long as we remember. Come to find: no trains!

The folks at Lil’ Klippers told us that all the trains that were on the train table just disappeared one Saturday a few weeks back. They’re hoping someone returns them…or donates some new ones.

Baby Z’s reaction to the train-less train table at left, our best guess as to the culprit at right.

I started Wallyhood back in 2008, right when my son was born, because I realized I had lived in the neighborhood since 1993 and didn't really know my neighbors. I figured writing a blog about what was going on around me would be a good way to meet people and help other people do the same. As the years progressed, those neighbors have picked up the torch and it is now a group effort, which I adore. I moved out of Wallingford for a few years (2020 - 2025), but I'm back, now living with my wife, son and dog (Dillinger) up in Tangletown.

    We’re on it! We’ve got a box-o-Thomas here that no one plays with anymore. I’m sure the kids would be happy to share. Look for them later today…

    Terrible! My son would also have been very upset. What a mean thing to do! (Thank you, Floor Pie!)

    Ah the harsh realities of life. I’l bet Baby Z is asking “but why”. Good luck explaining it.

    We rode over today and the new trains (so generous, Floor Pie!!) are still there. I hadn’t checked back to see comments first so we donated a few trains and cars, too, just now.
