GorgeRail is Almost Here
by Aaron Hockley
GorgeRail is now just two weeks away. Registration is still brisk and I expect that by the show date we’ll have at least double last year’s attendance. I have been reviewing the final versions of the shows from the presenters and this year should be awesome with lots of great photography from some very talented individuals. Attendees may also attend a presentation by Kathi Kube of TRAINS magazine about how to be published, and a workshop on digital image editing by Paul Petersen. On Sunday the group will tour the Oregon Pacific Railroad, have a short excursion to Oaks Bottom, and tour the Brooklyn Roundhouse (home of the SP 4449 and SP&S 700).
The deadline for pre-registration is next week. See http://www.gorgerail.com for details. If you wish to enjoy dinner with the group at the Discovery Center, you must pre-register. Dinner will not be available for those paying at the door. Some show tickets should be available for same-day sales at the door but availability cannot be guaranteed as seating is limited. I highly recommend that anyone planning to attend pre-register which will ensure you have a seat and make your entry into the theater as swift as possible.
I look forward to seeing you at GorgeRail!

Hi
I recently started a new project, I’m calling it the “Train and railroad museum” It’s a web site dedicated to trains, personalities, and railroad history. you can reach it here:

It’s just starting out, so the content is a bit sparse, but more will be added over time.
