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!
There were 21 RPM events in 2023. Prototype Rails held January 4 – 6 in Cocoa Beach, FL, kicks off 2024. Four more events are on the docket for the first quarter of new year. It’s never too early to make plans, or at least to map out the possibilities. I try to keep the RPM Calendar updated. If I’m missing an event or a correction is needed, please post a comment.
I’ll be presenting at RPM Valley Forge in Malvern, PA. This late March event will be held in a hotel just west of Philadelphia. Early registration is $35 until January 1 when it increases. You can register via the website. Details on presenters and vendors will be added to the website soon. Maybe I’ll see you there!
