Foreign Railways Front and Center at February Meeting
Lowell, Mass., Feb. 11, 2017 -- The attendees at the B&MRRHS meeting at Rogers Hall enjoyed a digital slide presentation entitled Foreign Railways. Two members of the Bay State Model Railroad Museum, (Roslindale, Mass.), Jay Epstein and Scot Osterweil, displayed a variety of scenes taken throughout the U.K. and European Continent. Stations, bridges, rolling stock and locomotives were shown, as well as entire consists hauled by electric, diesel, and even steam motive power. In addition to good photography, both men provided technical and historical background which greatly enhanced the presentation. The rapt audience enjoyed and learned. Jim Nigzus offered Jay and Scot a souvenir gift each from the array of B&M articles from the sales table. "Good show, what?"
Our next membership meeting is March 11, when we'll "Reminisce With Russ." See Calendar for more details.
