regularly helped out during our shows. Others were hobbyists
who answered the call because they were happy that Aberfoyle
Junction was moving, not to landfill, but a new beginning.
Preparing the new building
We took possession of our new quarters on August 3. Most of
the building was open space, having previously been used as
a warehouse. However, there were several small rooms at the
east end that had to be demolished. Also, the lighting fixtures
were not in keeping with our vision, along with inoperative
heating equipment on the ceiling. All of this material had to be
removed as well. Our goal was to have the “train room” ready
for the layout by mid-September.
