“Demise of the Hobby Shop” ??

Monday, January 20, is the next Mount Vernon NMRA clinic at the Mount Vernon Senior Center.  The topic this month is “Demise of the Hobby Shop” – or – where do we get our supplies and trains now?  There will be a general discussion on this broad topic, and the intent is to involve meeting attendees.  So bring your suggestions and recommendations on where you buy your modeling supplies, trains, locos, etc.  We want to hear from you!

Also, the Modeler’s Showcase is always in need of more participants.  Please bring something to show.  It need not be finished – a work in progress is just fine.

Speaking of modeling supplies and trains, if you have stuff that is excess to your needs, bring whatever you have and offer it up on our “Buy/Free” table.

Finally, our member Karl Kleeman has authored a book, The Early Railroads of Whatcom County, and Karl will have copies available at the discounted price of $25 (regular $29.95) and this also includes a DVD, too.  Hot off the presses!

Pre-clinic dinner at Round Table Pizza on College Way in Mount Vernon, at 5:00 pm.

See you there!
