Also, we are beginning to deliever the Crossing Gate in electronic format. Please let Walt Thompson know if you are interested in receiving the CG in this format.

Each month — usually on the second Thursday from October through May — we get together for modeling clinics, prototype railroad presentations, and open discussion.
Visitors are always welcome! See our "Why Join" and "Sign Up" pages.
