The program remains the same and several of our presenters will update what is on their workbenches. Join us for an interesting evening.

Russ Segner

What’s on your work bench, another look.

Please chime in with some helpful ideas. For instance, I will discuss bendable plywood and some simple techniques in scratch building wood structures that I have used. There has been a lot of chatter lately about ACC, so, any comments?

We will meet at 7PM.

Here is the link. I will open the room at 6:30.

Rich Blake will present a ZOOM clinic on Wednesday 11 JAN 2023, 7:00pm about using Java Model Railroad Interface (JMRI) Operations Pro to support modular operations. JMRI has a very capable operations feature that provides a great deal of variety to support modular operations. One of the issues with modules, especially a point-to-point layout such as our Pacific Northwest On30 Module Group layout, is that the layout constantly changes for each event with positioning of modules, inventory of cars/locomotives and the underlying requirement to keep things moving all the time. JMRI makes attacking modular operations relatively easy and keeps crews busy for entire weekends. This clinic Rich will describe how the general operations scheme has evolved for the PNW On30 Group and share ideas that can be used to create JMRI operations car forwarding for any layout.

The Mount Vernon Clinic scheduled for Monday, December 19, 2022 has been cancelled due to extreme cold, slippery road conditions and more snow in the forecast. Hopefully the clinic will return to our regular 3rd Monday schedule in January, 2023. – Al Carter, Temporary Clinic Chairperson
