Next Chapter Meeting - March 1, 2025
(Meeting will be held in person and also simulcast on ZOOM)
Modelers Meeting ("Building 3D Printed Resin Vehicle Kits")
Bruce Smith will discuss the advent of higher quality, lower cost 3D printers, 3D printed kits have become a cottage industry. In particular, vehicles of many types have become available for prototype modelers to use as scenery, or freight car loads. This clinic will cover some of the new 3D printed vehicle kits, how to assemble these kits, and ways to paint, and weather them. While the focus will be on military vehicles, due to my interest in modeling those, the lessons learned are broadly applicable to all vehicle kits.
Feature Presentation ("PRR Mail & Express Trains")
Doug Nelson
will look at PRR mail and express trains including operations, a gallery of M&E train photos, crew cabin cars, and modeling M&E train cars.
