2009 Annual Meeting

Prior to the 2009 Annual Meeting, we took a pre-opening tour of the Charlotte Trolley Powerhouse Museum. Some of MMR Fred Miller's masterful trolley modules are on permanent display, along with some vintage and reproduction 1:1 trolleys. Nobody remembered to bring a camera, so we don't have any photos to show. However, photos of Fred's modules are on his webpage at: http://www.fnbcreations.net/tractionfan/index.html .

Our meeting was held after lunch at Jillian's in Charlotte. Nice place, good food, quick meeting. Some of the highlights were:
