President’s Message

Dave Homer

Thank you for visiting our Website. Whether you are a new visitor or repeat visitor we very much appreciate you taking time to visit. There is a lot to do on our site, check events, shop in our store and join the Chapter as well.

As we move in to the Summer months, make sure you move trackside (being careful of course) to see what’s going on and if you’re taking pictures, keep in mind that today’s pictures are tomorrow’s history.

We’re very happy to announce the following events that you’re all invited to (more details can be found on the Event Calendar – Especially links of where to register for Zoom presentations).

As far as our meetings are concerned, we meet on the 4th Monday of the month. Meetings this Summer will be virtual only via Zoom.

  • June 22 – WJC Member Fred Ciocciola will present a program on a two-week trip he took in 1970 across the northern states from Minneapolis to Seattle.

  • July 27 – WJC Member Mike Yuhas will present a program called “Drone-based railroad photography.”

  • August 24 – WJC members Dave Homer and Don Lee (with commentary from Ben Makem and John Burlage) will present Part 2 of the Pennsylvania Railroad's "Back Road," from Upton to Bay Head Junction.

We’ll have more meetings and activities. Check out our website, shop in our store, join the Chapter!
