All layouts will be open.
Come and run trains if you can.
I’ll try to get there between 1-1:30
2. I received a copy of the certificate of insurance from the RF&P. I
printed it out and Mark of Greenberg/Gibbons Commercial has it. We are
insured.
3. I suspect that the Westchester Commons Concert series is going to start
up again. I will ask Mark. It would be nice to coordinate our weekend
displays with the concerts.
4. Next is the Motive Power Testing Report. I need to update it with one
engine I neglected to test…..the Pennsy Williams Also PAs.
Ready and Available Motive Power
Yesterday at our work/run session I tested nearly all of our club engines
for running ability. All of these engines are good choices in a pinch when
you need something to get trains moving during a display…..or, if you just
want to use them. I then rearranged the shelving into ready tracks. This
first picture shows the sets.
Picture 1 has the sets (and engines currently with issues that I WOULD NOT
ATTEMPT TO RUN).

Picture 2 has all our “ready engines” USE THESE IN A PINCH or IF YOU
WANT TO…………….
