After a little while of in-activity, new Director Kelly Russell would like to say hello and start providing updates again. We are in discussion on how many meetings and where we would like to meet. Until then, all TGD8 members are welcome to attend the San Jacinto Model Railroad Club meetings. If you have any ideas or are willing to help, let Kelly know.

ANOTHER GREAT PRESENTATION BY AN NMRA MASTER MODEL RAILROADER AT OUR MAY MEETING!

Our May meeting and clinic will feature Kelly Russell, MMR. Kelly will discuss operations vs. switching. He'll also discuss a car card system. Several of you have expressed an interest in operations and this clinic will go a long way in helping you with this fascinating aspect of the hobby.

The clinic and meeting will be Saturday, May 10 from 10 a.m. until noon at the Trini Mendenhall Community Center, 1414 Wirt Road 77055. In the upcoming weeks we will have additional information on other upcoming clinics.
