I am one of your absentee members that only show my face once a year.  I will be in St louis from October 1-5th.  I am planning on driving to Chicago either friday night or early saturday morning to Ted Schnepfs place to participate in an operating session at the O scale 2 rail Fox Valley Railroad.
 
I was wondering if there is anyone that would like to go with me and help share the cost of fuel and a hotel room.   The layout is awesome and great fun.   It will keep you busy for hours.
 
Let me know if you are interested or if anyone you know is interested.  Lets see what we can work out.   

Regards.
