Its about that time, I know its a repeat of aarons, but.

I just looked at the shcedule, Hastings, Cottage grove, St. Paul, Shoraham. all on Monday the 12th. then Laratto, Buffalo, Annedale, and Brooten the 13th.

WHO IS GOING, and where. I think it would be cool if we could all meet somewhere and kinda have a miny reunion/meeting of sorts. I like the Hastings one, as its got the old depot. but I will prolly hit all of em on Monday the 12th.

Like I have mentioned before, I will be out both days. I think I will make Redwing as well.

Where in Shoreham do they stop? Off of Central? Obviously they allow "civilians" onto the property this day.

Unless someone designates a meeting place, I have a red coat and the hood will be up and I will look cold... but happy.

I'll definately be at the Hastings one, living just a few blocks from the station.

Last time, I saw the CP 886 (?) coal train go through, messing up the schedule a bit.

I'm going to try to drag the fam to St. Paul

How on-time are these guys as a general rule, anybody know?
