Here's a message announcing the annual gathering of folks that enjoy operating hteir collections of trainhorns. This event is at the site of the future Applachian Railroad Museum next to the ETTP facility on Highway 58 west of Oak Ridge, TN. Thisis a fun event but be prepared for some noise!

All,
On Friday September 28 and Saturday September 29 SARM wll be hosting its fifth annual Horn Collectors Meet. During the meet air horn and whistle collectors, manufacturers and railroad representatives from around the country will be on site for live demonstrations and recordings of horns and whistles past and present. We are expecting between 40 and 50 participants.
Both evenings we will be operating charter excursion trains for the group. Trains will depart from the ETRC work area at the corner of Burchfield Rd. and Connector Rd. We will need a guard for boarding at 6:30PM each evening. The train will travel the same route on the same timing as a normal excursion run.
During these two days, please be aware that there will be a elevated level rail and horn activity in the Connector Rd. area.
Thanks for your help!
