Learn the exciting story of the railway that changed the country and the masterminds behind it all.


A full generation has passed since a New York Central emblem dashed across the countryside on a railroad car, but few could ever forget "the greatest railroad in the world." The New York Central System grew from an amalgamation of smaller lines stretching from Albany to Buffalo in the 1830s. Twenty years later, the lines were gathered into a single company. Its phenomenal success did not go unnoticed by Cornelius "the Commodore" Vanderbilt. In his late sixties, when most men retire, he methodically started acquiring railroads in the New York City and Hudson River region. He then acquired the New York Central and merged it with his Hudson River Railroad. The Commodore and his son William, the foremost rail barons of their age, forged ahead with one of the most dynamic future-directed endeavors in the world-a railroad empire that traversed 11 states and 2 Canadian provinces.

Highly deceptive on size, and the packaging is trashy!
Style: 20mm Yellow Gold
A coworker and I purchased these earrings as a gift for another coworker. They arrived today thrown in a plastic bag, with a cheap box that says "LooptyHoops" along with fliers about their other jewelry! The earrings are not ANYWHERE near the size we ordered! I am questioning the legitimacy of this company, and if their earrings are 14K gold!

Light weight delicate perfection.
Style: 16mm Rose Gold
Great earrings for the price. I was a little skeptical at first because of the size and price. I have thicker ear lobes and I'm very sensitive to metals. These earrings are epically comfortable! I forget that I am wearing them at times, very light weight! I now own the three colors of heart shaped hoops. White gold, rose gold, and gold. All of them came with their own box and cleaning cloth. I have recommended Loopty Hoops to my SIL for my nieces. I will also get my own daughter some when she is older. Very pleased with the purchase and the quality for the price.

Exceptional quality for the price
Color: Black
I've worn these sunglasses for over 2 years now and they haven't broken; a lense hasn't popped out. They are of exceptional quality for the price and they aren't heavy. Some of these sunglasses with the side panels will sit below your eyes and when you take them off, your skin is pulled and marked up. Not these.

Get them!
Color: Black
This Sun glasses are beyond my expectations, they are comfortable, light, stylish, extremely well made, I have other “better” brands and trust me, they suck compared to this one, just like other reviews say, they are very nice.
