Well not exactly native Idahoans, but close! One used to be a Montanan and the other was a Seattle area guy, now both moved to a better place. Marvin brought in 4 NP Geeps and so did
Greg but I don't know if they planned it? It sure brought back memories for me when I arrived in Spokane to stay in the Northwest back in 1967. Now don't go looking for matching numbers?
Here they are again this time chasing each other on separate rail lines in the middle of the club layout. Regrettably the edge of the earth is visable.
Ah, the god old days but I don't think we knew it back then.
Never seen before is the Altoona & Ft Mudge because Doug Nighswonger was not a member until 3 months ago. He told me that it has to do with a cartoon strip in the newspaper when
one of the characters would refer to this mithical railroad. Do you know which one?
November had a number of birthday boys honored at the club last week including Mike Baker,
Mike Olin and Jerry Quinn plus Keith Wiles for October and 2 other not attending the meeting.
Marvin makes the best desserts for the events and we are treated each month with goodies.
Doug also had this tiny steam doing work with a mixed freight but no identifying lettering on it.
It must be a poor railroad as they may not be able to pay for it. Maybe we need to pass the hat?
