Hi Lee --
Sounds like I need to mark the calendar! Probably fall color and nice
weather are all arranged, too... Please keep us advised – I am sure hotel
bookings will be hard to come by for late comers.
Thanks for the info!

P.S. If I can possibly attend, I will be at the meet in Seattle held in
September next year. Will you be going?

Maine to Host 2016 National Narrow Gauge Convention
Hickory, NC, Sept 10. 2016 -- The business meeting of the National Narrow
Gauge Convention today overwhelmingly approved a proposal to return the
long-running national gathering to Maine in 2016.
The 36th National Narrow Gauge Convention will be held in Augusta, Maine on
September 7-10, 2016, the week after Labor Day. The host venue will be the
Augusta Civic Center, the largest convention facility in Maine.
The central location in Maine's capital city will facilitate visits to four
operating steam prototypes: Maine Narrow Gauge Museum, the Wiscasset,
Waterville & Farmington Railway, Boothbay Railway Village, and the Sandy
River & Rangeley Lakes Railroad.
Convention activities will also include clinics on railroad and industrial
history and modeling, a large manufacturers' room selling modeling supplies,
modular layout displays and home layout tours, and side trips to numerous
Maine attractions.
The convention committee includes numerous narrow gauge modelers from the
MiniBunch, the Sn2 Crew, and the Great Lakes HOn30 group.
