Hello - Model Railroads of Southern California is planning a model railroad layout tour in the Redlands, San Bernardino and the Lake Arrowhead-Big Bear Lake, CA, areas on Saturday, June 25. If you have an operating layout and live the tour area, please contact me off list. This will be the twenty-fifth tour sponsored by the group since 2006. Over 300 layouts have participated in these tours. The usual format will apply, that is, the tour will be self-guided and free, and I’ll provide the publicity, schedules and maps. If you have any questions before committing to the tour, please feel free to contact me off list. I hope you’ll join with other area layout owners and show your layout to your fellow model railroaders. Thank you.
