The North Carolina Transportation Museum in Spencer will be holding a model train show and sale as part of the Rail Days event April 26 & 27, 2008.

The amount of tables will be set by vendor interest and space availability in the roundhouse, which will be near a maximum of 80 tables.

All model train scales, railroad art, and general railroad collectibles will be part of the show. Model train layouts will also be set up beside the show.

As a result we lose contact with you. The name of all club officers is on the back page, along with the editor’s current email address.


Dues and Name Tags

Dues are past due. If you don’t have a 2008 dues card, you probably haven’t paid your dues for the year. Check your card; If you are not current, please send your check for dues to Jim Fuqua at 2813 Hampton Drive, Hendersonville, NC 28791.
