Burlington County (NJ) Model Railroad Club Open House

Nice looking club, G.E.C.! And pretty good sized, too! Looks like you guys have been working on it for quite a while as the scenery looks very close to complete, at least in the areas that you photographed.

There is still a little while to go, i'm probably going to be working on a city scene, and i would like to build a small passenger station for my MU/PATCO cars to stop at along another portion of the line, but we'll see.

I find myself wishing I had sought out and joined a club earlier in life! I missed out on years of friendships and collaberation on building, maintaining and eventually operating a large layout ... it really is a bunch of fun, don't you agree, G.E.C.?

Part of the problem i run into, is that there are "newer" members than me, but they're getting all the projects, and i get left standing around. For all the dues i pay, i should NOT just be standing there. Its not like they have running nights during the year. I've finally gotten seriously annoyed and i'm now pushing to get my projects through.

I think because i'm relatively young, that they don't want to give me anything. I've got a reasonable set of skills, and so i hope to show i am capable and competent.
