Happy Father’s Day
Today we celebrate all the dads who taught us how to build, fix, explore, and dream. Whether it's sharing a love of trains, passing down treasured hobbies, helping with projects, or simply spending time together, fathers create memories that last a lifetime.
From toy trains around the Christmas tree to riding the rails on a sunny afternoon, some of the best moments are the ones spent with family. Thank you to all the dads, grandfathers, and father figures who inspire the next generation of railroaders, builders, and adventurers.
We wish you a day filled with family, laughter, great memories, and maybe even a few trains!
Wishing all Dads a Happy Father's Day! 🚂👨👧👦❤️

Workshop and Clubhouse Workday Recap for Saturday, May 30th
The weather cooperated perfectly on Saturday, allowing another productive work session at the railroad. Crew members Wes, John, Norm, Darryl, and Robby continued making steady progress on Container #2, focusing on finishing work that included fishing, floor repairs, framing, and installation of the back wall.
The weather cooperated perfectly on Saturday, allowing another productive work session at the railroad. Crew members Wes, John, Norm, Darryl, and Robby continued making steady progress on Container #2, focusing on finishing work that included fishing, floor repairs, framing, and installation of the back wall.
With each workday, the transformation of Container #2 becomes more apparent. The completion of the back wall and continued interior improvements represent important milestones as the project moves from structural work toward the finish phase. The team's efforts are helping build momentum, and the goal over the next several work sessions is to accelerate the finish work inside Container #2 so it can be put into service as soon as possible.
At the same time, planning continues for the relocation of Container #3. The objective is to have Container #3 moved into position over the coming weeks, allowing the next phase of improvements to begin and ensuring that progress on the overall project continues without interruption.
To keep this momentum going, we could use additional volunteers on upcoming workdays. If you are available, please consider coming out and lending a hand. There are also several tasks that can be tackled outside of scheduled work sessions by small groups. Current needs include installing rebar in the cinder block ramp leading to the container, mixing and pouring concrete into the blocks, continuing finish work inside Container #2, and a variety of other project tasks like track repair.
If you have a few hours available and would like to organize a crew between planned workdays, your help can make a significant difference. Contact Robby with any questions. Every completed task brings us one step closer to finishing Container #2, moving Container #3 into place, and advancing the long-term goals of the railroad.
Our next workday is planned for June 13th with a focus on completing the end wall and building and installing ceiling frames for the container. Don’t forget that our June 13th workday is also a planned club meeting at 1 p.m.

Momentum is Building – Impromptu Workday Pushes Clubhouse Project Forward
The momentum behind the clubhouse and workshop project is really starting to build — and this past Saturday proved it.
In an impromptu work session, Wes and Norm came out and made tremendous progress preparing the next section of the container for repairs. Thanks to their hard work, we are now in a position for the repair work to take place sometime this week or during our next official workday on Saturday, May 30th.

The push to finish our clubhouse and workshop is officially underway, and every workday gets us one step closer to crossing the finish line. This is one of the biggest upgrades in our club’s history, and it’s exciting to see more members stepping up and helping move the project forward.
Our next workday will be:
Saturday, May 30th
8:30 a.m. – 3:30 p.m.
The main focus for this workday will be building and insulating the ceiling and end wall of the container. This is a major step forward in transforming the container into a functional clubhouse and workshop space. We’ll be framing, installing insulation, organizing materials, and continuing prep work for the next phases of construction. There will be plenty of opportunities for members of all skill levels to jump in and help.
We’re continuing our every-other-weekend workdays to give everyone plenty of opportunities to lend a hand, learn something new, and be part of the team bringing this vision to life.
Whether you can help with repairs, construction, organizing materials, cleanup, or simply bringing positive energy, every bit of help matters. The progress we’re making now is setting the stage for a fully finished clubhouse and workshop by our October Fall Meet… and yes, we’re still aiming to make that happen this year 😉
Come out, get involved, make memories, and help build something our entire club will enjoy for years to come.
Let’s keep the momentum rolling — together.

The team spent the day working on the track leading up to the clubhouse while also making repairs to container two. The repair work included rebuilding part of the rear floor structure and installing a new exterior support beam to strengthen the container for years to come.
A huge thank you goes out to everyone who volunteered their time and effort. Every workday brings us one step closer to improving and preserving the railroad for everyone to enjoy.
Our next workday will be in two weeks, and we would love to see even more members and volunteers come out to lend a hand. Whether you can help for a few hours or the entire day, every bit of support makes a difference — and it’s always a great time working together with fellow railroad enthusiasts.
Come join us, get involved, and help keep the momentum going!

From the sound of steam engines working the rails to the sight of families packed on passenger cars with smiles from ear to ear, the entire property was alive with railroad excitement. Guests enjoyed riding behind a fantastic lineup of locomotives while taking in the sights of boxcars, cabooses, and classic rolling stock throughout the railroad.
Days like this are what make the hobby so special — sharing the magic of railroading with the community and creating memories for kids and adults alike. A huge thank you goes out to all of our volunteers, crews, and visitors who helped make the day such a tremendous success.
We can’t wait to do it all again at the next run day. All aboard! 🚂

Work Day / Public Run Prep Day
Mark your calendars for Saturday, May 2nd at 8:30 a.m.—it’s time to roll up our sleeves and give the railroad some well-deserved TLC!
We’ve got a productive (and satisfying!) day planned, focusing on track maintenance—especially in the yard area and switches. After our spring meet, we found a few spots that need attention, including some switches that need to be regauged and secured with longer screws—particularly on the far end of the #4 yard track. We’ll also be making our way around the railroad to tighten up older sections where rails have loosened over time.
It’s a great chance to make a real impact, learn a few things, and enjoy some time together trackside.
🛠 What to bring:
Your favorite tools
Water to stay hydrated
Lunch to keep you fueled
And most importantly… your sense of humor 😄
Let’s make it a fun, productive day and keep the railroad running smoothly. See you there!

Spring Meet Update 2 and Planned Activities
As we get closer to our Spring Meet, which is Friday, April 17th, through Sunday, April 19th. Make sure you are registered so we can make sure we have enough food for everyone on Saturday. Speaking of food, we are asking everyone to bring their own drinks and maybe a few extras to share, plus desserts to share. The club will be providing everything else.
Now on to some planned activities. Our planning committee has been hard at work to create three fun activities for the weekend. They include:
Click the links to learn more about each of the activities.
As a reminder, this is not part of our regularly scheduled public run days and is intended for club members, those in the hobby, and invited guests.
One final note, we will also have our regularly scheduled April meeting during lunch.
