Nostalgia & History > Switcher Saturday, Medco & The Late Tony JohnsonDate: 09/24/22 07:54 Switcher Saturday, Medco & The Late Tony Johnson Author: FiveChime Preserved Medco Baldwin in storage near Medford, Oregon.
One of the treasures protected by the late Tony Johnson. Here is Tony doing one of his favorite things, hauling a train load of people on the small railroad running around the Medford Railroad Park that he helped to manage. A great all around railroader who is sorely missed. Regards, Jim Evans Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 09/24/22 07:55 by FiveChime.

They really have an interesting operation that has the support of the city and the surrounding area. I'll try to find a newsletter or website.
+ Well, here's the Model part of the Club: https://www.rvmrc.org/ Quite a bit of the PNW uses Facebook for their hobby interactions, try checking on that venue. I would recommend anybody in the general area to be aware of the Medford Club. They have a sizeable area provided by the City and have some great Model, historic and running, riding outdoor euipment to check out. There has been some posts on here in the past to check out.
