Grandma Line workday recap for Saturday, December 16th
A small, devoted crew came out to the site on Saturday to work on the “Grandma Line” project. John T. and Wes worked on replacing a drainpipe and replaced with a French drain system with a conventional open end upstream and flex pipe over the cliff. They also placed boards in preparation for crush and run and east end waterline extension. Today’s event marks the last official workday of the year with plans to continue to make progress on this project and others in 2024. Thank you to the “Grandma Line” crew for all of the work and progress you’ve made in 2023.

Christmas Party and Club Meeting Recap
The early rain didn’t put a damper on the annual Christmas Party and December club meeting. The rain came in mid-morning but by the time we finished lunch the skies cleared, and the sun came out. During the club meeting the nominations for the 2024 were made official. The following will be voted on during our January 6th meeting for the 2024 board.

During the club meeting the nominations for the 2024 were made official. The following will be voted on during our January 6th meeting for the 2024 board.
2024 Nominations
President: Robby Mossman
Vice President: Peter Craymer
Secretary: Dave Levy
Board Member Nominees (3 Positions Available)
Calvin Abernathy
Bob Cummings
Scott Moore
Wes Rogers
John Tuten
According to the by-laws for positions that only have one nominee those positions are automatically filled by the nominee starting with the 2024 board year. This means the position of President, Vice President, and Secretary do not require additional vote during the January meeting. For the three Board Member positions we have more nominees than available seats will requires a vote during our January 6th meeting.
One change to the nominee list came from Scott Moore after the meeting as he requested his acceptance be changed from Vice President to Board Member. Scott had originally been nominated for both and originally accepted the Vice President and declined the board member nominee. He requested his acceptance change to Board Member nominee. This then means that Peter Craymer will be the only Vice President nominee and will become the Vice President for 2024 board year.
An email will follow shortly allowing those not able to attend the January 6th meeting an opportunity to submit a ballot electronically. Please only submit your vote electronically if you do NOT plan on attending the January 6th meeting.
As we wind down the 2023 season don’t forget John Tuten is planning a workday on the “Grandma Line” project on Saturday, December 16th. If you plan on helping, please make sure you contact John and let him know.
If you purchased a 2024 NGLS calendar, please make sure you get with Norm regarding paying and picking up your calendar. Also, if you ordered a club t-shirt and have not had a chance to pay and pick up your shirt also contact Norm to make arrangements. Do not forget to pay your dues by the January 6th club meeting. All full members must pay by the day of the meeting in order to be eligible to vote.
One final thing. Don’t forget to join everyone at the railroad on January 1st for our annual New Years Day club fun day.
The 2024 Schedule Has Been Set
The season flew by this year and it is hard to believe we are already talking about the 2024 schedule. The goal of the 2024 calendar is to make sure we provide nearly monthly club fun days, scheduled workdays, and opportunities to visit other clubs without conflicting with anything we have on our official NGLS calendar. The list below is a partial list of our dates with a full list available on our website by click on the calendar page. Below we’ve simply listed our public run day events and Fall Meet. Starting in 2024 our Fall Meet will now be scheduled during the last weekend in October. This is being done in order to not conflict with events at other clubs in the region. This should provide an opportunity for both NGLS Members and others in the hobby an opportunity to visit other railroads and not have any scheduling conflicts between clubs.

Slipped in a workday even though the forecast said it was going to rain this past Saturday
To say the weatherman got the weather wrong would be an understatement as we cancelled our club meeting and party this past Saturday. The original forecast didn’t deter John, Wes, and Scott from coming out to the site and getting some work down around the railroad. The crew worked on building a switch that will eventually get installed on the mainline and help connect the “Grandma Line” and water line with the mainline. The crew is hoping to get the switch installed in the coming week or two.

What an incredible end to the 2023 public run season
What an incredible end of the 2023 public run season we had on Saturday. The weather was perfect, and the railroad saw the most steam engines in operation during a run day in recent memories. The day would not have been a success without each member and volunteer who came out. As we begin to transition to the offseason a few things on the calendar includes a club fun day the Saturday after Thanksgiving and our December 2nd club meeting which is when we take nominations for the 2024 board. Be on the lookout for an email regarding board nominations and how you can submit a nomination online if you are NOT going to be at the December meeting. A few have asked about a Christmas party as part of our December meeting, and we hope to have information on that soon.

For those who like to know how we did here are some of the details:
Rides Given: 553 ($1,106.00)
Total Donations: $92.00
Merchandise; $341.00
Concessions: $222.00
Total income: $1,761.00
Be on the lookout for a workday in the coming weeks before the weather turns to cold. One thing we will need to work on is doing repair of about 30-feet of track on the west side of the railroad. As part of the repair, we will need about 50 ties cut so we have enough for this repair and a few others. Speaking of workdays, the “Grandma Line” continues to make progress thanks to John and Wes. Finally, the shop project is finally getting restarted. Be on the lookout for more on this. We have two immediate items we need to work on including moving the blue container and getting power into the first shop container. More information to follow.
Saturday, November 4th is our last big public run event of the season
This year has flown by, and it is hard to believe we will be wrapping up our 2023 Public Run season this Saturday. We have some work to do Saturday morning to get the railroad ready so please come out as early as possible to prepare the railroad. We will need to clear the railroad of leaves and other debris along with our normal setup including tents, tables, and more. We are expecting another great turnout including another birthday party to enjoy the day with us.
Speaking of people turning out in doing some research it was discovered that we have given more than 17,000 rides in the past 10 years on our railroad during our public run events. That would not have been possible if it wasn’t for our members and volunteers who have worked hard over the years to build and maintain the railroad along with those who come out and volunteer during our public run days.
Again, come out this Saturday and share our passion for this hobby and make some memories with our visitors that will last a lifetime. If all goes well, we should have a full showing of steam engines as well as a few diesels running throughout the day which was a great combination during our last run day.
See everyone on Saturday around 8:30 a.m. to help get things up and running.

2023 Fall Meet is a wrap
The weekend weather was just as great as our 3rd Annual Fall Meet. A thank you to our Fall Meet crew who helped make the event run without a hitch. The crew took care of setup, onsite security, parking, Saturday lunch, and more. The crew consisted of Dave L, Wes, Scott, Sherry, Norm, Susan and others.
Starting next year, we are making some adjustments to the NGLS fall meet starting with shifting our meet to the 4th weekend in October. This is being done in order to reduce conflicts with other established meets going on in October. This should allow both NGLS members and others in the hobby an opportunity to attend more fall meets going on in our region. Our 2024 Fall Meet dates will be Thursday, October 24th through Sunday, October 27th. Mark your calendar and start spreading the word.
Speaking of the calendar our last Public Run Day of the 2023 season will be Saturday, November 4th. We are expecting another great turnout from our visitors, members, and locomotives. While the public run day season is coming to a close, we still have other club activities on the calendar for this year including our annual Leftover Turkey Fun Run, December Club Meeting, and more.
