The new Gateway Western!


The WMRC's greatest achievement this year has been the resurrection of the Gateway Western layout!
After Gooch's moved to a smaller location, the layout was kept in storage in a local warehouse for several years. Now it is in the Winnipeg Railway Museum in its very own heated structure! A dedicated group of volunteers assembled the structure in the middle of winter and built a brand new layout. Neil, Suzanne and Cliff are pictured in the new building.

  1. Has the Executive decided about the November 2016 meeting date? Since it is Remembrance Day and a very important date on their calendar I would think we would reschedule the meeting? Maybe information could be put in The Lantern as well as on the website. I am probably not the only one to think about this situation.

  2. Thanks for bringing that up, Ron! It should at least be presented at our next business meeting in September.
