NMRA MetroNorth Regional Meeting 10/30

The NMRA division meeting is coming 10/30/10 in New Canaan

There will be two clinics as follows:

Bob Collett , and his Huntington & Hartford layout was one of the early layouts featured in MR and is a prime platform for demonstrating almost every aspect of DCC. Bob will address the first of a number of DCC clinics we will have over this coming year – the Capabilities of DCC. Quite frankly, Bob is one of the most knowledgeable people in the hobby and is renowned for sharing this knowledge with others. Bring a pen and paper and take notes. Bring your questions and receive answers. His layout is open for visitors after the meeting.

The second clinic on Water, Rivers, and Falls will be presented by an enthusiastic modeler in hot pursuit of his MMR, Robert Seckler. Almost all layouts have “water” somewhere, whether in a port setting, a river or stream or tumbling over rocks and boulders. If you ever asked, “how did you do that?” Robert will demo how it’s done. Here too, take notes and maybe a camera to take some pictures. And ask questions.

The Saturday, October 30 meeting starts at 9:30AM at the New Canaan Historical Society, 13 Oenoke Rd in NC. Look for MN sign. Tons of parking in back. After meeting activity includes a choice – an op session at Franklin Lang’s layout in Stamford, or an open house visit to Bob Collett’s Huntington & Harford RR in Huntington, CT.

All are welcome -
