RPM meet – Notes on Designing, Building, and Operating Model Railroads

2024 Mid Atlantic RPM report

I attended the 2024 Mid Atlantic Railroad Prototype Modeler (MARPM) event in metro Baltimore recently. In addition to the model railroad activities, I found the Heavy Seas brewery tap room just a few minutes from the hotel. But I know you are here for the model railroad stuff, so off we go!.

RPM season!!

I don’t know if you realize this, but we have turned the corner and landed in Railroad Prototype Modeler (RPM) season!

2024 RPM calendar

I’m sure a few readers are wondering why I’m promoting 2024 railroad prototype modeler (RPM) events ten days before Christmas. Well, the event calendar picks up in January!

2023 RPM-East summary

I traveled across the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for the 2023 RPM-East prototype modeler event in Youngwood, PA, for the March 24 & 25th weekend. It was my first RPM of the year. I’ve been involved with publicizing and assisting with RPM-East since 2005.

RPM events

As February slips away and the countdown to spring begins, it’s time to check out the Railroad Prototype Modeler (RPM) calendar for several March and April events. I’ve been a fan of these events for many years as I enjoy the presentations, display models, and seeing friends. I return home all charged up for the next project.
