I tend to be a creature of
habit. When I decide that I like something it can become a part of me. There
are 3 events per year that I have almost never missed in the 20 or so years
since I started going to them. My first NASG Convention was in 1988 in the then
far away lands of New Brunswick NJ. I have only missed going to 2 of them. My
first PRR T&HS Convention (also called the Annual Meeting by some) was in
1990. I have only missed 1 of them since. Finally there is the Central Jersey
S Scalers Fall Get Together which is solely responsible for me switching to S
Scale in 1988. My first CJSS Get
Together was in 1987. I have never missed one of them. The CJSS Fall Get
Together started out as being a 3 day set up to fill the church hall with a
modular layout that had a large wye, and switching on multiple branch lines
and operating trains. It has evolved into a buying selling and social event mostly
where people come to eat sand occasionally run trains, basically on the same
loop of modules. There is also a bi-yearly Railroad Prototype Modelers
Meeting which I REALLY like. I
have been to 2 of them so far. I have taken thousands of photos total for
these events since I started attending. Since I got my first digital camera
in 2002, it makes posting them here much easier. I may go back and scan earlier years that
were taken with my film cameras at some point. The photos are randomly
selected. Click on the logo to go to my photo pages
