If everyone would like to hold off till the new year, that would be alright too. I'll need some time to pull my camper off.

When I lived in Denver I worked for the BN railroad at the COFC TOFC yard.
Most of the year we had 3 or 4 trailers of mail and 4 or 5 for UPS on every train.
From Thanksgiving to Christmas we had 50 or 60 trailers on every train for each of the above listed services.

All I can say is you guys in Spokane, Tacoma and Vancouver must order a lot of stuff from Chicago and east of there, because the inbound from Chicago and the outbound to Spokane, Tacoma and Vancouver were our two biggest trains for mail and UPS.

If I still lived in Denver I would come to the meet, eat and tune session, that is just a hop, skip and jump away.

Well if that's the general consensus, I guess I can wait that long. Heck by then I should be able to have several of my mods all done AND have it cleaned up nice

Any one of those dates is open on my calendar right now, so the rest of you guys chime in with which date fits best for you......

You mean the second date? The 13th? And that's the one that Barehuggs will be busy. This could be tough.

Any of those dates will work for me, I just gotta know a date before December rolls around so I don't book a show over it.

I live in Edmonds.

I think we had arrived at a decision to wait until after the new year. So the dates would be January 6, 13, or 20.....

However, you and I live close enough together to have our own meeting even before then.
