Marion Railfan Society Meeting Feb 2013

Date: 2/16/13
Time: approx 6:30 PM
Place: Marion, Ohio depot

Our program this month will be a slide presentation by Keith Robbins. Keith began his railroad career as a tower operator on the EL, followed by train dispatcher and chief dispatcher in the EL Marion Div headquarters. During his Conrail years he held positions such as Supervisor of Train Operations. He recently retired from the NS. Keith's show will take us trackside in the 60s and 70s and feature towers, depots and Fallen Flag roads around Ohio and Indiana. There should be time for a free-for-all after Keith's show so dig in and bring some goodies to share.

All railfans are welcome at our meetings. There's no dues but donations are appreciated, and put to good use in maintaining the tower and depot so we can continue to enjoy both for many years to come.

Join us before the meeting at the Shovel Restaurant next to the depot for dinner and railroad talk. We usually start congregating there about 5:30.
