Well, we're here in beautiful sunny Sacramento!
Does anyone know whether John Petrovitz (of the fabulous Northwestern Pacific Ry.) will be here? If you have contact information for him, pls. PM me, I seem to have lost it (well the info)
Thank you, Otto Kroutil

I can also be contacted directly at

Getting ready to head over to set up the Sacramento Valley NTrak layout...

Cajonpassfan: Don't know about John, but I'm hoping to see Mitch Valder. He also models the NWP (as do I) and he lives in the sacramento area while John is in the SF bay area.
Sacramento Valley NRail and NTrak
We're always looking for new members

Okay, I know the NSE Swap-o-Rama was scheduled to start at 9 AM PDT this morning; but I have not seen a single post today from our members on the left coast.  Any news guys?  :? :? :?

Peter with N Scale Kits is working on a variety of new intermodal stack cars among his other excellent kits.
PWRS had multiple version of this hopper
Wheels of Time had some great looking box cars and flat cars.
FVM had the sharp looking 2010 blue/green demo GEVO (My son said "THAT is what I want for Christmas!").

If someone could take a picture of the rear of the C&NW cab on the Arnold SW-1, I would much appreciate it.

oh crap, FEC GEVO. My wallet just ran away.
Which ever side of the track I am on is the right side.

What's the story on that FEC GEVO?  I don't recall seeing that in any of the FVM announcements (but I want some!).
