Our regularly scheduled workday is this Saturday, February 22nd, with a focus on performing major track repair on the east loop of the railroad. We need to repair about 100 feet of track, which has large gaps between sections that limit the ability to use the railroad. The day will start a little cold but will warm up, especially since we will be working in the sun. Make sure you bring lunch, tools, and a good sense of humor.
Please note that this track work needs to be done before our next Club Fun Day, which is Saturday, March 1st. If we have a large enough crew, we may have a couple of people split off and work on finishing building the curve switch for the “Grandma Line” project, and if we get really lucky, maybe even install the switch. That is a big maybe.
NGLS club members are you looking to get rid of the leftover turkey and trimmings on Saturday, November 28th. Come out for a club fun run day at the railroad. Bring friends, family, and bring the leftovers to share.
Our regularly scheduled Club Meeting and annual Christmas Party will be on Saturday, December 5th. The plan is to have lunch, meeting, and White Elephant raffle from 1 to 4 p.m. Additional details will be provided as we get closer. As a reminder we will be taking nominations for the 2027 board during the meeting.
Continue the tradition of starting out the New Year with getting the family, friends, and don’t forget the train out and play for the day.
This event is open to club members, others in the live steam hobby, and invited guests.
