Meeting Night

Lots of ideas were discussed. Most of the discussion was around having some rules to operate by. It is thought that we should impose a safe operating speed, there has been a few cases were trains have been run into. On the same topic of keeping trains at a safe distance, it was agreed by all (all that we're there, if you don't come to the meeting you can't voice your opinion) that if a town is occupied you must wait at the town your in, or ask permission to run through. A lot of agreement was reached on having a train master for each session, maybe on a rotating schedule. The responsibilities might include, enforcing the operating rules, allotting trains to be run, answer questions about operations, and resolve complaints. It might be better to vote in 3 or 5 people yearly. I will bring a draft set of rules to be accepted by the membership. A big thanks to Donald for changing the lights in the stairway. All the best to Trent and a quick recovery, hope the knee is better. In the next post I will talk about Don's Elsewhere plan.
