I hope you get a better speaker, I sure did not like the last one. He just would not stop talking.


wasn't there for the supper, but heard he wore a nice Tux!

Friends,
This years banquet speaker is taller than 4 ft. He is knowledgable in garden railroading operations and has taken many train rides on tourist lines in the US. He REALLY likes steam locos. Last years speaker will be hard to top, but we are trying!
Clubs, order tickets in a block and you can get seating together.
Clinics are coming together and include topics like AirWire, Scratch Building Locos, Building Wood Structures, Weathering with Spray Can Paint, and presenters include names some of you will know!
Don't forget the layout tour on Sunday, May 3, 2009!
Check http://www.segrs.com/ for all the details!

Johnny,
Thanks for asking about the show. Right now, we plan to offer all clinics both days, but that may change. It is our current plans. That goldfish car is something else! I'm going to that one, too. Keep watching the web site for firm details. We will post those as soon as all is confirmed. We are still looking at a few other clinics.
Don't forget the model contest, banquet Friday evening and LAYOUT TOURS ON SUNDAY! This show will almost be a mini-convention!

RJ,
I am planning on it. I already have my time off set at work. Not sure you remember what that is. Thats where you go every day and at the end of the week they give you a check, then you remember why you are there. Although after visiting with our buissnees manager at the union hall about my retirerment. I found out that my train purchaces will increase tremendously next year when I retire. Even though I really love my job, that I have been doing it for 40 years. after seeing the figures this morning, made it all worth while. Thanks Rex

Chattanooga, TN is CLOSEST to show site (about 30 minutes). Atlanta is probably best choice for cheap and selection of flights (about 1hour 30 minutes from show site--DEPENDING ON TRAFFIC).
Chattanooga sure has less traffic!
