This month we’re having a special holiday, year-end presentation titled “Remembering Milwaukee Road’s Coast Division” narrated by Blair Kooistra. Blair has demonstrated his photographic expertise in creating this beautiful and exciting but somewhat sad tribute to the final days of the Milwaukee Road’s Coast Division. This video is a collection of images that document the last days of the Coast Division, narrated by Blair and set to background music. So come join us, take a break from holiday shopping and kick up your feet with your favorite holiday beverage and enjoy our December presentation!

I am modeling MLW in Bellingham, late 1950’s. I would love to have a scale model of the tug called “Milwaukie” that plied over 1,000,000 miles on Puget sound, 1914-1956, making a circuit between Seattle, Port Townsend and Bellingham. A superb craftsman of marine craft, lives in Canada, would consider putting this unique tug into kit form, especially if I could find other MLW-minded modelers who want it, and scales preferred.
May I bring this up at Thursday evening’s clinic? I’d be gathering interest, not “pre-orders” and not a “down payment.” It was “the railroad that ran on water.”

If there’s any interest in it, we could certainly discuss it for a few minutes. But it would also be interesting to hear about people’s reactions and comments about the video. Something else to consider, Bob, would be to start an online discussion in the Grab Iron about your topic. It might garner even more interest that way! 🙂
