[CBQ] Athearn at Monticello Railway Museum This Saturday, May 21

["Ted Lemen" <hi_jeanx@yahoo.com>]

Scale Modelers Take Note: This Saturday and Sunday, May 21-22, the
Monticello Railway Museum will operate its restored steam locomotive
(Southern Railway 401) for the public. On Saturday (ONLY) they hold
their first Planes, Trains and Automobiles promotion and the model
radio-controlled aircraft field adjacent to the museum will be in full
operation (weather permitting), and a variety of antique restored cars
from as far away as Chicago will be on display at the museum grounds,
some of which will take a drive through nearby Allerton Park that
afternoon.




One of the participants on Saturday will be Athearn, owned by the
Horizon model airplane group that runs the airfield, and they will have
two tables at the museum grounds, manned by an Athearn executive. It
would be the perfect time to speak directly with Athearn on issues I
have seen voiced many times, i.e., "The decals are in the wrong
place", "There aren't enough sideposts" or "Why don't
they make one of these?", or "The color should be two shades
lighter", etc.




The Monticello Railway Museum is located about halfway between Champaign
and Decatur IL on I-72. Check their website for details: mRYm.org.
