Re: Fw: Railfair 2003 Layout Update

[Scott A Smiley <sc.smiley@juno.com>]

I am a possibility for the train ride.  I will try to confirm later this
month.  If we get more than 6 requests, we can take the 6 free ones and
the ones to pay and divide by the number of people to reduce cost to all.
 I think we should limit this to members unless we do not use a 6 seats.
