The Chapter was well represented at the annual sHOw at Bowling Green on Saturday March 7, 2009. This year the event was held at the RailPark and Museum in the nicely restored L&N depot on CSX’s main line from Louisville to Nashville. The recently acquired E8 in fresh L&N paint is the feature of the outdoor display along with an RPO and several passenger cars.

The show was held in the depot and presented a good variety of model railroad supplies and equipment. An “N” scale layout was in operation in the show area and the Museum’s HO layout was also in operation as an extra option along with the museum itself. Chapter members I met included Rick Bivins, Keith Kittinger along with his wife and grandson, Rex and Melanie Easterly, Steve Miller and Chuck Hinrichs.

I left before the show closed so other Chapter members may have attended later in the day. It was a very nice show and from what I could tell, very well attended. – Chuck Hinrichs
