Friday Night Operators are at it again. This year, the FNGers have decided to split into two groups as we have grown so large no one layout can accomodate everyone in an evening. Some people feel that they never get a chance to visit other layouts as the roster is always full.
Therefore, we grouped together some of the operators from the east end and formed a smaller subdivision if you want to call it that.
The Eastenders, as we call ourselves, even though Dave Primeau thinks it sounds like a Brit TV show, consist of Chris Lyon, Bob Hobbs, Jim McSherry, Joel Racine, Dave Primeau, Malcom Campbell, Ron Newby, Monique Bonneau and Fred Adams.
So far, we have visited Mike Hamer's B&M layout and this past Friday, we were at Dave Primeau's B&M in Vermont in the Fall.
Next Friday. October 30th, we are going across the mighty Ottawa River to visit Michel Boucher and his wonderful D&H empire.
Ron Newby is posting videos of the layouts on the forum & Youtube for those who are interested. The Youtube urls are: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ecmGY7v20Hk and www.youtube.com/watch?v=HCqAAF_SU1Y.
We'll keep you posted as to what is happening as it happens;
So far our schedule is a follows:
October 30 Michel Boucher
November 6 Jim McSherry
November 13 Open
November 20 Mike Hamer
November 27 Ron Newby
December 4 Fred & Monique
December 11 Chris Lyon
If anyone would like us to visit their layout please let us know as we still want to operate with our friends to the west of us.
Good railroading everyone.
