Secretary Bob Troup has announced that the Fall 2009 meeting will be held on Saturday, October 3rd in the Phillips Community Center on Main Street. Dinner will be served at 6:00PM and the meeting will start at 7:00PM. The agenda will include reports by the railroad's officers and election of Directors. Some of the issues to be addressed are; the repairs to Monson #3, a reliable coal supply, restoration of the cars leased from MNGRR, restoration of coach #5 (aka#17), the ROW fund and construction of the new car barn. There are a number of proposals for the car barn. One plan favors a steel framed structure with wooden (board & batten) siding while another plan specs a completely wooden building. There will be discussion on having a fund drive to raise money for the construction of the building.
The railroad will be operating on both Saturday and Sunday of that weekend.
Anyone who plans to attend the dinner and meeting should notify President Eric Hinkley at president@srrl-rr.org
