2 April 2014 Issue - Page 2 TLRC at the Golden Empire Historical and Modeling Society (GEHAMS) Model Train Show 8th of March 2014 Pictures and Story by Marlan Woodside Each year a local area MUST ATTEND event for any model railroader is the Golden Empire Historical and Modeling Society (GEHAMS) Model Train Show conducted at the fairgrounds in Bakersfield California the second weekend of March. This year was no exception, as Rick Passalacqua mentioned in his article on page 3. Besides our friends at the High Desert Modular Model Railroad Club (HDMMRC), my apologies for not getting pictures, there was also the AV N Scalers of which TLRC members Debra and Chris Howard are active members. The N Scalers traditionally have not only a great N scale operational layout, but also promote the various scales that comprise the hobby by displaying a very informative poster depicting the train scales. The TLRC business meeting was conducted an hour earlier on that day, so members could leave from the meeting and still have enough of the Saturday left to take in the event. There is AL- WAYS something to find at the various vendors (which included TLRC members Linda Gordon (Trains Etc) and Theresa and Mike Bruno (Green Steam Products). The interaction amongst the various clubs is an added bonus as the GEHAMS conducted an open house of their downtown Bakersfield N and HO layouts and there is always an opportunity to join in on the informal after show dinners. For after all, after operating trains all day, one s gotta EAT!!!!..An event well worth the drive up the road!!! More coverage on Page 6 L to R: Debra Howard of TLRC and AV N Scalers discusses operations with TLRC and temporary HDMMRC member Wilson James L to R: Visual AV N Scaler s display of scale sizes and then the narrative description does an effective job of letting the viewer learn more about the hobby.
3 April 2014 Issue - Page 3 East Kern G Scale Railroaders Story and Pictures by Rick Passalacqua During March, Dennis Keck and Rick Passalacqua carpooled to Bakersfield to attend the Golden Empire Modeling and Historical Society (GEHAMS) train show at the fairgrounds on Saturday, 8 March. There were at least four G Scale vendors, and lots of HO, O and N scale stuff with some really nice layouts set up. There were only two G Scale vendors that really had bargains but they were very good bargains! Dennis bought four buildings including one that he especially wanted and got it and the rest for less than the retail price of that one building by itself! Rick bought three pieces of rolling stock including a crazy track cleaning caboose. (see picture) We also bought some sound systems without the batteries, one for a steam locomotive and three for diesel engines. Then we discovered that there was other good stuff at really great prices. We ran into Rex and Cathy Welker along with other Tehachapi Loop Railroad Club (TLRC) members that took advantage of the early TLRC general membership meeting start time and made the drive up to Bakersfield after the TLRC meeting concluded. Rick Passalacqua s home layout and new track cleaning caboose. Our last get together was at my house the Thursday (13 March) after the GE- HAM show. John Bell, Dennis and Dan Steinberg showed up. Rick had planned on leveling some track and adding fresh ballast but once everyone came he abandoned that idea. Instead, he cleaned some track and ran some engines. John was measuring Rick s double track clearances to apply those measurements to his layout. Dan and Dennis installed a new battery on one of Dan s engines. The group mostly just had a good time talking G Scale. Rick provided lunch and later the group planned the next get together along with a possible work party to be conducted at John s the following week. The next week the stomach flu was going around and I was the only one to go to John s (Rick was also kinda of weak!). John and Rick surveyed John s track plan, moved a few wheelbarrows of dirt and then relaxed. Our next get together will be at Dennis house on Thursday April 17th at 10am. His address is Cumberland Rd in Bear Valley Springs ( ). This will be an engine repair workshop. We will try fixing whatever engine that requires repair. Call me for a gate pass at or Hope to see you there! See Ya Rick March 2014

6 April 2014 Issue - Page 6 TLRC at the Golden Empire Historical and Modeling Society (GEHAMS) Model Train Show 8th of March 2014 (concluded) Pictures and Story by Marlan Woodside We all may know Phil and Maureen Cornyn as the keepers of the TLRC caboose and the Promotions table lady, but Phil also serves as a Kern County Sheriff's Citizen Volunteer. At a recent Appreciation Dinner at Hodel's Restaurant in Bakersfield, Phil was recognized for his 412 hours of service. Good job Phil, Congrats! and thanks for keeping the streets safe and the donut shops occupied! :-) As an HO modeler, I discovered for the first time the Cen-Cal free-mo display. As Mike Bruno explained the concept to me, this type of display is unlike the typical modular setup where the trains basically run in a continuous circle. The free-mo concept has a beginning and end, as in this case, I would call this particular setup a loop to point arrangement, wherein one end of the layout was comprised of a return loop that took the train back to it s point of origin. It was interesting that the front end SP engine end shot was the returning of a freight to the Mojave Yard (see display panel picture) where the power would be uncoupled and a yard engine would break down the train to form another train that would then head out of the yard with the destination being the loop which would then return that train back to the yard. In my view, this eliminates the running in a continuous circle to one of the look and feel of having a train run end. While on a pass by inspection it does not appear different until you watch the operation and realize each running of the train requires an end to the journey!

It is time for our members to step up and support the TLRC Train Show by supporting you r Scale Chairs and of course the BAKED GOODS headed up by Theresa Bruno. Those goodies help defray the cost of our shows, so please consider making a contribution. Also TLRC dues time is coming up and our new Membership Chair Rick Passalacqua could sure use your help by having your renewal check ready, it is unpleasant to have to track people down for payment! We have 17 people signed up for the Citizen Kane and Metrolink trip on Saturday 28 June, most are Friends of the Tehachapi Depot folks but this is good interaction between our local clubs. Also on 21 June is the first ever TRAIN CRAZY Saturday at the Mojave Airport sponsored by the Mojave Transportation Museum folks as a fund raiser, more info on that next time.
