LAST CALL: Show Your Railroad - Central Coast Railroad Festival

This is the last call for model railroads to participate in the Central Coast Railroad Festival layout tour.

The Festival returns this year to San Luis Obispo County and northern San Barbara County on October 6-8 (Friday-Sunday).

As in past years I will organize a tour of model railroads and garden railroads. We currently have over thirty railroads on the tour.

I would like you to consider participating in the tour.

Participating in a layout tour is a great way to share your work and meet your fellow model railroaders. You’ve probably worked hard on your railroad so you might as well get some recognition from people who will appreciate your efforts.

We are only asking owners to be open for four or more hours on just one day. Additional days and hours are at the owner’s option, including "early bird" showings on Thursday, October 5. And we are asking owners in Santa Maria and areas south of Santa Maria to be open only on Sunday, October 8.

All you need to do is operate your trains. I will do all the planning and publicity, as I have done for sixty-two previously tours since 2006, including ten previous tours for the Central Coast Railroad Festival.

This will be a free, self-guided tour. No buses will be used.

If you have any questions before committing to the tour, please ask. In any event, please contact me (OFF LIST by e-mail) in the next several days if you are interested so we can add your railroad to the tour and also set your day(s) and hours.

The deadline to join the tour is Saturday, August 26.

Thank you.
