Neat stuff from all over … .
\nThe endangered New York Wire Factory Whistle Concert<\/a>, a rite of Christmas Eve for decades, will continue.
\nThe Susquehanna Gateway Heritage Area<\/a> has created a fund with the York County Community Foundation<\/a>. That fund will underwrite the concert in the future… .<\/p>\n


\n“Many people believed Christmas 2010 would be the last time they would hear the former steam whistle concert, which was performed using compressed air for the first time in its long history. The concert was performed by Donald E. Ryan on the New York Wire Company’s historic factory whistle. Ryan began to help his father with the concert in 1955 and took over the concert in 1990,” a York County Community Foundation news release stated.
\nOf course, donations to the fund are welcome: 848-3733 or visit www.yccf.org\/give_online.asp<\/a>.

\nLocal link with Lincoln:<\/strong> Historic Restorations<\/a>, a Lancaster based restoration and preservation company, is part of a major rehabilitative project at the Petersen House in Washington, D.C. The 19th century federal-style row house was built by a German tailor, William A. Petersen, across from Ford’s Theatre in 1849. This three-story townhouse would become the location of President Lincoln’s death hours later. This home has been preserved along with Ford’s Theater as part of the Ford’s Theatre National Park Site.
\nNeat video:<\/strong> A York County resident has posted a YouTube video in which he rides the old Hanover Trolley Line, soon to be a rail trail extension between York and Hanover. Here’s its caption: “The York Hanover Trolley Line was operated as a passenger trolley line from 1908 until 1939. The historic line, which is approximately 16 miles in length, provided a transportation connection for many outlying communities such as Graybills, Bairs, Sunnyside, and Menges Mills.” Check it out.<\/a>
