Nice crowd on saturday. Both members and visitors.
The most exciting thing for me was when I almost got to buy Scott's BigBoy.
Hunter's friend was taking his first turn at driving the rails with Hunter's Williams AmTrak Genesis and it got away from him on the NE corner of the layout. It de-railed off of track three, which de-railed Hunter's SD70 freight consist, which de-railed Scott's UP passenger string being pulled by the BigBoy on line #1. Luckily, the Plexiglas railing rescued my credit score.
Ira and I noticed that at 5 pm, it was getting fairly dark. With each upcoming week, this could be more of a problem. Maybe someone should make an executive decision to change the hours to something else like 12pm-4pm ?
