Agenda

Clinics:

  • 11:00 AM – First Ops Session on the Richmond Harbor. Based on the North Shore Branch of the Staten Island Rapid Transit in the 1950s — a B&O subsidiary — Ciro hosted his first full operating session, complete with prototype-style switching orders, and a dispatcher-free crew making their own moves. Cars rolled to US Gypsum and Muralo, switch lists were filled, and 46 of 48 cars found their proper spots. The crew’s verdict: a punch list of tweaks for next time — and a whole lot of fun.
  • 1:00 PM – A brief overview of 3d printing to start, folled by showing how it can be used to model previously unavailable models. The focus will be on very early LIRR equipment and British equipment as well.
  • 2:00 PM – TBD
