UPDATE : 

April 9, 2023

The club held its first operating session on Febuary 20 since Covid 19 hit.  The club has been working towards this date for a long time and it felt extremely good to finally get this first operatiing session in.  While there were a few "minor" hickups in this opening session the club looks forward to eliminating these "hickups" and working towards a smooth ops session.

The club also held an open house for Sunset residents shortly after Christmas which was well attended.  What has been really nice is that every week on Monday nights more and more individuals from Sunset are coming down to watch the trains operate.  Hopefully once the club establishes a semi-permanent operating session schedule more people will come and watch operations unfold (or blow up, whatever the case may be).

A new main menu option "Ops Sessions" has been added.  Information and photos from the latest Ops session will be added to the Ops Page(s).
