<P>Y'all:<br> I had a nice meeting today with Ken Rucker from the Association of Railway Museums about the joint meeting of ARM and the Tourist Railway Association at the N.C.Transportatoin Museum in November 2001.<p>But it made me recall that I've not seen anyone talking up the 2000 meeting here, so...<p>If you've got the time and resources to do it, get registered and head up to Scranton for ARM's annual meeting in September. This year's event is a wonderful smathering of fascinating speakers (take it from me, I should know, I'm one of them/just kidding!), seminars and the chance to comiserate about balky injectors, matching paint samples and luring visitors off the Interstate. <p>The real skinny is at http://www.visitnepa.org/arm2000/index.html<p>Go to this one, and then plan on the meeting at Spencer in November 2001! <br>

<P>Jim,<p>Yeah, the convention this year has a good line-up of stuff for those trying to make it happen at their museums. . .collections-wise and financially-wise. SRM hopes to bring a few people up there if we can get away from the museum for a few days. <p>--Malcolm<br>
