The convention is September 8 to 11, 2021. We are planning to have layouts
open in the afternoons between noon and 5:00 pm. You do not need to be open
every day. The plan is there will be no clinics in the afternoons so member
can visit layouts. The convention is at the Irvine Hilton next tote airport so
it is close to you. I will give your information to the layout managers and
they should be contacting you. But basically what we need is aids riptide of
the layout size, and what you are depicting. Also some information on access,
and number of people can be in the area at one time.

If you are talking about showing it at the PSR convention I will get your
contact information to the tour managers. What we will need is some photos,
and a description of your layout.

I should have my home layout completed in time for the home layout tours this
year (subject to the Covid Status situation). What must I do ?

OCMR MEMBERS:
OK, it appears that we are all unfamiliar with Thomas Fratello.
He is trying to find a home for his 67 professionally done, layout videos.
Not even Bill Hess, who sent me the email, knows him.
Undaunted, I sent Thomas the following email earlier today.
If any of you know Thomas, I'm still looking for information about him.
Otherwise, the ball is now in his court to contact us.
In my view, he wants his videos to be seen by the public,
and not a few members in some back room layout building
of a fixed base club.
I've offered him information as to how OCMR would make
his videos seen by the public.
More importantly, the public need not come to some fixed layout building,
but that OCMR goes to the public.
---at train shows, museums, home shows and special events such as
Imaginology and Elks clubs.
I also included a link to our KRT event in 2019 at the OC Youth Center.
If this does not warm his heart for OCMR, there is nothing better to add.
I'm awaiting his contact in return.
These videos are extremely valuable for coercing folks into our hobby.
Having 67 of them would be a godsend!
Will keep you appraised,
Harry
EDDY: please look at the link in the email below.

We've not met but a club member sent me notice of your DVD offer.
I am VP of Orange County Module Railroaders, OCMR.
We are approaching our 50th year and have 37 members plus a couple to add in
2021.
We are not a FIXED base club where only a few members
would see your videos or need to come to our layout location to view them.
Rather, by our name, OCMR is modular and we travel.
We do train shows but much more, about 12-16 shows per year.
Our territory ranges from Palos Verdes to the Perris railroad museum.
We bring trains to the public.
This includes museums, home shows, Elks events,
Imaginology at the OC Fairgrounds, etc.
Adding a constant playing video of some of the
best layouts in our hobby would certainly
add interest and perhaps bring new railroaders into the hobby.
One of the options we try to include at most shows is KRT,
Kids Run Trains. We provide a throttle and train,
and our guests run around the layout.
Here's a link to one such KRT in 2019 at the Orange Youth Center.

I would like to speak with you about our club and how
we would use your videos.
Please call or emaill with a good time to continue this subject.
I'm heading for the office for a couple hours:

Speak soon,
