August 2009 Free-Mo Set-up at the San Bernardino Station

Images from the large HO scale Free-mo set-up in the waiting room at the historic Santa Fe Station in San Bernardino, California, August 1-2, 2009. The Station is adjacent to BNSF's transcontinental mainline, and is the eastern terminus for Southern California's Metrolink commuter train service.

Module contributors at this get together include members from Free-mo_LA, Free-mo SLO, NorCal Free-mo, SouthWest Free-mo, and Wasatch Free-mo.

Ah, a good plan in a great venue, what more could we ask? Oh, is this also a Harvey House for food? I may get down there. John Colley, Sonoma, CA
