Walter Halls, Clark Gray, Larry Setterfield and AllanCruickshank are still active. They should write their memories of the “goodold days”. Gentlemen, we salute you for starting something that has provided David Cook, Presidentus with many new friends and countless hours of enjoyment.It is my hope that all of our members will attend the March 28th meeting. We will be celebrating the30th anniversary of the formation of our division with a cake for the occasion and a special commemorative token for each member in attendance.In light of the sales that have already been made, your executive decided to increase the number ofWoodside Reefers that we will order from Atlas from 152 to 176. At the present time we have orders for 133 cars, which leaves us with 43 to sell. It seems that this project has gone well right fromthe start and a warm thank you and congratulations for a job well done is due to Charles Reiff,Martin Howbold and especially Mark Horne, for their hard work on this project. I would be remiss if I didn’t also mention George Plant, he is the man who keeps track of the numbers and weneed men like that to keep things straight.One sad note this month -- one of our founding members, Art Schroeder passed away on March the5th. It seems ironic that he should pass away only weeks before the celebration. Allan Cruickshankand I attended the memorial service.The Cameron Western Rails Meet is history for another year.
