Gloden State Model Railroad Museum on TV

ABC Channel Seven News came to our club last week and took some video. Last night they aired a nice little piece during the 6:00 PM telecast.

Nice to see the hobby get some needed exposure.

WOW Chuck. that was a very nice report. GREAT Museum to visit also. Three Scales running N, HO and O. If you go to the Bay Area, I recommend a side trip to the Golden Gate RR museum...... :) ;D

As an (ex for the moment) member of the GSMRM, they hit the nail on the head.

Obviously I wish they captured the huge trains that we could run on the N-scale layout. For example a unit grain train looping itself over the wonderfully captured Tehachapi loop, but I guess its what i get for not being there like I should.

I will always love trains. I still can look at a train running thru Jack London Square, enjoying a pint at the First and Last tavern - and name every engine, probably not impressing the older lady I am sitting with.  ;)

     A nice report. Glad to see Model Railroading get coverage in a large metro area market.                         Nate Goodman (Nato).
