Central Arizona Chapter
September Minutes


The September meeting was held at Mimi's Cafe in Casa Grande on September 19 at 10:30. Present at the meeting were Bob Rebsamen, Art and Barbara Bailey, Andy and Debbie O'Brien, and Tim and Karen Johnson.

Most of the meeting was devoted to planning for the October Railfair event. This will be held on the second weekend of October 10 - 11. It is open to the public from 10 AM to 5 PM each day. We can be there as early as 8 AM to set up our modules.

Andy and Debbie are bringing their small kids layout again so young enthusiasts can experience running a train for themselves.

This will be the first time we have straight modules set up for Railfair. Art and Barbara built one, and Tim and Karen have built the other.

One piece of work that has to be completed on some of the modules is to extend the track so that it is flush with the end of the modules. Tim shared his experiences extending the track to accomplish. He will add text in the modules section for our Chapter web site to capture this information for future reference.

Respectfully submitted,
Tim Johnson, Secretary
