Successful Summer Open House

Posted on June 5, 2011 by DominicF

A note from the San Leandro Historical Railway Society President, Joe Barker.

We had another successful summer show this weekend.

We had a extremely good attendance both days.  This was especially surprising Saturday morning when it was raining heavily.

The weather was beautiful most of today.  Both the HO and G&O railroads were running and all of our visitors were having fun.  Many people people remarked on the scenery improvements for the HO layout.

We ran live steam on the G&O both days.  It was fun to see so many live steam locomotives speeding around the display.

The childrens layout was very popular.  We had both a Hogwarts Express and a Thomas the Tank Engine train running.

I want to thank everyone who brought cookies and other baked goods.  The sales were excellent.

Donations, raffle and cookie sales were very good.
Thank you again for making our show success.

Joe
