Daylight Division Members and Friends -
Most of the important information for the upcoming Daylight Division meet on July 29th at the Goleta Depot is available on the Daylight webpage?
We will have coffee and donuts before the meeting.? Cost for the whole day is $4 for NMRA members and $5 for non-members.
Door prize is a certificate for $50 of model railroad items from Central Coast Trains.
Bring a few items for the White Elephant Auction.? Any railroad related item, any scale, any era, wrapped in non-descript newspaper.? We will auction them off to the highest bidder.
Just a few more details...
Neil Fernbaugh will be doing a hands-on weathering clinic.? It does not matter what scale you model, bring a car to weather.??
Bob Chaparro will be following that with a PowerPoint clinic on how to tune up those freight cars to operate smoothly.
We have a few layouts which will be open after the meet.? They include:
- Chris Horn's?M?rklin layout with a flavor of Holland and Germany.
- Dana Driskel's N-scale 1920 Los Angeles & Salt Lake Railroad with Nevada desert scenery?
- Don Newman's HO scale freelance SP Pomona Division
- Gary Siegel's HO scale L&N Eastern Kentucky Division in 1971 with Appalachian scenery including lots of coal mines.
- Gary Siegel's #1 outdoor SP Santa Cruz Division running through a dwarf Alberta Spruce forrest of more than 1000 trees.
- Bruce Morden's HO scale SP Santa Barbara Subdivision in 1994 with local Santa Barbara flavor?
- And for those traveling north to get home
- George Gibson's HO and HOn3?DK & Pacific Mountain Railway with many beautiful structures.
We don't have control over the weather but we think it will be cooler than Bakersfield or Fresno. Come and enjoy the ocean's influence.? The Depot is about 2 1/2 miles from the Pacific Ocean.
Come join us for a day of fun model railroading.
