“How and why we build our layouts”
Our Spring Meet is tomorrow, Saturday, June 6, at the Bellevue Sheraton.
We have designed a program to give insights and ideas on building layouts. Lots of questions will be answered, such as how big to build? Or what era and prototype to use for ideas? What about operations? Do you build alone or with others in a group or club?
Several MMRs and others will share their experiences and what inspires them in the hobby. So, come with your questions. Meet and share ideas with model railroaders from across the Fourth Division.
A bonus is your chance to see several layouts on Sunday afternoon. Descriptions and locations will only be available to those attending Saturday.
During the lunch break, the Division will hold its Annual Meeting. Several awards will be presented, including The Golden Grab Iron Award. You will also get to see our redesigned website and Grab Iron.
We sincerely hope you will attend. If you’re not already registered, you can register at the door. See you tomorrow!
