Railroad Modeling University

ShowMyHobby.com will be at the CSD (Carolina Southern Division) RMU (Railroad Modeling University) event on Saturday, April 15th, 2023. This event is open to all people interested in model trains. I encourage you to search for the CarolinaSouthern.org website and click on information about the RMU. Pre-registration for the event takes place online only. You are welcome to bring family members for reduced prices.

The Annual Railroad Modeling University will be held Saturday, April 15, 2023, at West Concord Baptist Church, 225 Warren C Coleman Boulevard, Concord, NC 28027.

They are offering 26 clinics covering topics ranging from beginning to plan a new layout, through various stages of constructing a layout including adding highly meaningful and detailed scenery to enhancing a layout’s enjoyment through the addition of advanced electronics. Experienced master modelers will also share tips and tricks they have learned through their years of modeling. In general, everyone can have a good time learning more about our World’s Greatest Hobby®.

I personally will be attending classes during every time slot during this event. However, I am taking a few really good S scale American Flyer by Lionel and American Models items plus some HO scale goodies that have been consigned here and you can grab them in the White Elephant room set aside for sales during this event. If you receive our division’s BrassPounder Newsletter, you should receive a coupon code for free pick-up of items that you pre-order on my website prior to midnight, Friday, April 14th.

During the Hickory Train Show on March 31st and April 1st of this year, I spoke with a couple of people and let them know that my next event would be the RMU. However, I mistakenly mentioned that this event was for division members only. It isn’t. It is open to the public and anyone wanting to learn fabulous modeling techniques or wishing to get more fun out of their own starter train sets. Visit the website and see the 26 clinics currently being offered. There is something there for just about everyone. Class sizes are limited, and the date is April 15th, 2023, starting at 9 AM.
