RRFan meetup location suggestion

Unread post by David Collins »

I'm not sure what the plan is for this years RRFan meetup, but I remember seeing photos on the photo gallery of a past meet at Wauseon, Ohio. Could we do that this year? Just an idea.

I'm down for Durand personally, My only concern however is that it gets dead very quickly, and you could go several hours without seeing something. Pick a date though, I'll be there.

I don't like Durand, too many class 1 trains there. I'd rather the meet be at Owosso so we can only watch GLC, HESR, and SRI traffic.
