It worked!

Sounds exciting though! Greg Shinnie Country: Canada | Posts: 3723 George D Moderator Premium Member Posted - 11/15/2011 :  4:55:02 PM     I got the point, Rick!! I put it on my calendar. It's been a while since I attended an RPM meet. George Country: USA | Posts: 9916 Rick Administrator Premium Member Posted - 11/15/2011 :  4:58:16 PM     It was done three times because there are three dates and each time you add a date to the calendar it creates a separate post. Now you know. Country: USA | Posts: 17743 postalkarl Fireman Posted - 03/24/2012 :  4:03:00 PM     Hi: Does anyone know what the admission price is? Also what time doe it open Sunday? Karl S.

The Desmond Hotel in Malvern, PA was filled with model railroaders from around the country enjoying four seminars each rotation, a great display room, plenty of vendors, a dinner and op sessions. I learned about coal, the DL&W in Oswego NY, Cleveland area rails in the 1920's and building a modern P&G paper plant. Here is just one picture from the display room. Look at that crowd. Hats off to Paul Backenstose, Jim Dalberg, Dick Foley, Ken McCorry, Val Pistilli, Steve Salotti and Andy Hart for managing this meet.

Mark See my homepage at http://home.comcast.net/~prrndiv/ Country: USA | Posts: 9276 LVRALPH Fireman Posted - 03/26/2012 :  05:31:22 AM     Three good looking dudes. I learned a better and easier way to put decoders in Athearn blue box units. The best was Craig B solving my pin connected bridge eyebar problem. I will now be able to move on to finishing the bridges on my RR. Hueber rode with my wife and I on the layout tours. Neither had seen Ken McCorry's layout. My, were they surprised, especially my wife! I told Hueber he would have CTC machine envy!

More display room: Mike Rabbit's scratch-built sintering plant. He says it took three months. The management crew in conference. Paul is second from left, then Andy Hart and Jim Dalberg. We had a big and happy crowd all weekend long. Country: USA | Posts: 574 MarkF Engineer Posted - 03/27/2012 :  10:40:07 PM       The sintering plant took three months? Good grief, I couldn't do that in 3 years! Very nice! Mark See my homepage at http://home.comcast.net/~prrndiv/ Country: USA | Posts: 9276 LVRALPH Fireman Posted - 03/28/2012 :  06:05:31 AM     You should have seen the construction pics in his clinic Mark. Impressive! Country: | Posts: 5430 dlwrailfan1 Crew Chief Premium Member Posted - 04/03/2012 :  12:28:55 AM       Some more pictures to show how crowded the display room was. Along the wall, we reached maximum capacity. I presented a seminar on the Nottingham Mine in Plymouth PA. It was history and modeling thoughts. Here is my audience at the beginning -- all smiles. By the midway point, the audience was fading. Thanks guys for playing along. The food function on Saturday was food only, no speeches or presentations. The final attendance was 277. Great job by the organizers.
