That's not a bad idea. Though rather than making it a seperate group(if
such you were envisioning to begin with), perhaps it would be good to keep
it as part of the main goings on here in Cols?
I'd just hate to see things start to get moving only to then split into a
bunch of smaller gatherings, etc. Especially before we get off the ground
with the next few meetings. I know we've had gatherings in the past but this
is the most activity in this group since late winter/early spring.
A random thought spun off yours (this could get dangerous if we keep going <G>):
How many of us have trains (and how many?) to begin with?
Me: 1 - 4565, no extra track or additional cars.

I haven't been to the Franklin County Fair since I've lived here so I really
don't know.. but doing some sort of a show or promo would, indeed, be a
great idea for a common goal for the group here to work towards.
