July 5, 2008 was a typical summer day in the south...warm and humid. But at the historic Quantico Depot, the A/C was working well and we hosted a steady stream of visitors. Everyone had a great time having fun "playing with trains". Our regular monthly Open House is the first Saturday of every month...come & see our progress. |

Safety is important on every railroad and our layout is no different. Max's CSX caboose carries the important message. | ||
