We are meeting at Glenwillow, Ohio this Saturday at 10:00 am. We will have a short meeting to discuss future activities, maybe a short business meeting if the Prez is there and wants to have one, and then we'll tour the "Falls Jct" passenger and freight stations.
We then head a couple miles up the road to Bedford to tour their historical society and station. Afterward there is lots of W&LE and other railroad stuff to do.
If you're travelling on I-271 South or I-480 East, jump off at the Alexander Road exit and turn left on Alexander Road and follow that to the railroad tracks. Park in the Glenwillow Town Hall parking lot on the left, across the tracks from the station.
If you're travelling on I-271 North or I-480 West, you'll get off at the Broadway-Forbes exit. You'll turn right onto Broadway Ave, and follow that to Pettibone Road. Make a slight left onto Pettibone, and follow that to the railroad tracks. Park in the Glenwillow Town Hall parking lot on the left, across the tracks from the station.
This is the first of several activities I hope to schedule this year, at different locations around the W&LE. After the short meeting, I will send out a questionnaire asking your thoughts on future activities. NKPHTS listers who haven't already, send me an email and I'll send you a questionnaire, I'm not going to clog up their mail list with all my stuff.
And as always, attendance is not required, and membership is not required to attend.
SHAMELESS PLUG TIME There are seats left for the Orrville Railroad Heritage Society's Cabin Fever Reliever, running on the W&LE and P&WV railroads on April 28. More cars will be added if needed. Call 330-683-2426 or visit www.orrvillerailroad.com to get on board!!! _________________ Mike Spinelli
