From the Backshop

The dog days of summer are just about over, but hope you've been enjoying your cool layout rooms and workbenches in the meantime.

We are certainly hoping for more ability to get out and enjoy activities with all our modeling friends - hopefully starting with Joint Lines to Pueblo, the Region's Convention - slated for Sept. 9-12 in Pueblo, CO - one of the great railroad venues in the Region. Denny Krausman has provided all the details and registration info, and if you attend and take any pics or videos, we'd sure appreciate you sharing them with The Callboard.

Bill Tulley has provided another superb 'Pandemic Photo Road Trip', too, taking us west to Idaho this time - many thanks.

And you'll notice some new activity in Announcements - train shows again! Check the schedules to start making your travel plans.

As always, if you have an article, photo, video or other announcement you want to share with the Region, send them our way for the next issue - you can contact me at jwp519@gmail.com. The Callboard Fall Edition's deadline for submissions is October 15, 2021.

Keep staying safe and healthy,

Jeff
