May Operating Sessions

Two operating sessions are scheduled for the month of May: May 4 and May 25 (Friday evenings from 7 - 10 p.m.). The Carleton Railway's posh European Resort in Nortondale has been expanding and improving facilities in preparation for the busy summer season. New cottages, a large gift shop, and a beach volleyball court are now available for the VIP guests (click on the photos to enlarge them). A few unseasonably warm days in mid-March allowed a few guests to have a workout at the new volleyball court, while the tennis court in the background was also busy. The Capital City Commuter is slowing for the depot in Nortondale.

It isn't often that hotel guests can catch some rays on the beach in March, but this winter has been far from normal.

Nice to see more great improvements on the layout.

How did the March 1 ops session go?

Both of the operating sessions this winter have gone very well--there were a good number of crew members and things worked quite smoothly. Hopefully I have identified the major things that need to be fixed before the May sessions. Meanwhile, I am also working to upgrade my modules for Halifax in June.
