From the Backshop

Welcome to the Fall RMR Callboard for 2025, and as our president Gary Myers mentions, continuing our celebration of the 90th Anniversary of the National Model Railroad Association during National Model Railroad Month. 

We have lots more detail on next year's RMR Convention in Rapid City - registration info, lodging, clinics and more.

Greg Long, AP Chair, has a big announcement of the Region's newest Master Model Railroader.

And, we're also giving you the first look at the new NMRA logo - as the website states "The NMRA Unveils a Bold New Look for a New Era!" 

Remember - please share and send any pics or videos you take at a club meeting, train show, or railfan excursion, as well as any announcements or articles you may have for the next issue of the Callboard at jwp519@gmail.com (please include CALLBOARD in the subject line). The Callboard Winter Edition's deadline for submissions is January 18, 2026.  

p.s. Still working on restoring the older issues of the Callboard that have become unusable - slow going, but making progress.

Now back to the heavy lifting, 

Jeff
