Brian Jackson is a member of the Once-A-Month Model Railroad Club with me in Springfield, IL.  He has a fantastic Southern Pacific S scale layout that was featured in RMC about a year ago.  A very good guy who owned a hobby shop and is now a college professor.

I have missed all of our meetings this year due to illness, blizzards and other commitments so I need to catch up with him soon and see if TRW can influence some of his N scale choices.  I know, everybody wants a K4   :D  For the record I will be lobbying for Milwaukee Road stuff although Fox Valley has been very good to us.
Best regards,

Roger

I spoke to Bill Lane (one of the Jackson-Standard founders) yesterday and he mentioned that he is looking for individuals who are:
