Welcome aboard!!!

One of our members is active in FreeMo module modelling. He is building a model
of the Carrollton Branch, which is part of the Cleveland Division. Maybe this is
something you would be interested in, building a modular layour at home, where
the main parts of it could be taken to a FreeMo convention, and operate on a
much larger layout.

It's something I'm considering, even though I'm at least a year and a half away
from having the tme and money to start a layout.

Mike Moran can tell you a LOT more about the concept.

That is a very neat area. We have done two tours in the greater Cleveland area,
one of Gelnwillow and Bedford, and one of the W&LE from the PRR crossing west.
And we still haven't covered the several miles in the middle. Maybe that can be
arranged. If you want to see the Cleveland tour one day, we can hook up. We
spent a good six hours along the line, that could be shortened of course.
