May Meeting Update & Newsletter


May Meeting Update

The May Division Meeting ‘s clinic was a slideshow about a lot of local railroad history. Not growing up in this area there is quite a bit I don’t know about local railroad history but have been learning a lot over the years.

There were a lot of slides and it was quite interesting! Here is one I took a picture of. It is the one used for the basis of one of the convention cars. Accurail doesn’t make this exact type but close.

SLURR-prototype

Here is my car that I recently put together.SLURRAnother interesting line we learned more about were the Saltair cars. I haven’t put together my boxcar yet.

The first run of convention cars are nearly sold out; just a couple of each left. If you hurry you might still be able to get one:

OR email Stan at clubcar@northernutahnmra.org to check if there are any left.

The second set of cars are available here: Club Car. They are going to go fast.
