    Well, well, well!! :D What kind of membership is required? Weeknight or weekend? If certain gentlemen from Wyoming are invited, methinks it might have to be over a weekend...

    Weekends for sure. I can only do a couple hours because my life is tight these days, but I'd love to get to know some other model railroaders in Denver.

    It's up to you guys how we do it. I thought we could sit and socialize for a bit and eat a snack. Then we could wander over to the millenium bridge and hang out over the rails for some easy railfanning of BNSF and light rail. We can also get a good view of Union station from trackside this way.

    Otherwise if someone wants to have some guys drop by for socializing at their house we could do that as well.

    Maybe just do a small group of people for starters.

    Two words: finals, Inlaws.

    My next two weekends are taken. After that I'm good to go.

    Superday is no train show, but our model RR club will be an exhibitor. It's hosted by a local refinery. I forget why. We'll have a larger HO layout (DCC possibly) the 4x8' N layout I am working on, another HO layout, and possibly Z scale... Static displays from Z-to-G will be available for comparison.
    More info here: Superday

    Sounds like a winner for a weekend. I'll be keeping up to see where this leads. Only thing is, I'm not so sure about this "gentlemans" thing - that could irrepairably damage the reputation I've worked so long for!

    Just imagine the rumors that would follow.......
    Agree as well.......that if anyone discovered I was a "gentleman" , it could have serious side effects!! :D
    Oh well......Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

    I don't think I know any of you yet but I sure would like to meet some folks with similar interests in the area. Let me know what date you decide on. My schedule is very flexible but I will be gone the last week of June for some much needed R&R.
