BSA Railroad Merit Badge
by admin on Oct.23, 2022, under Amtrak, SLORRM
It just so happened that we were in California when the San Luis Obispo Railroad Museum offered a class for Boy Scouts of America to get their Railroad Merit Badge. And, it just so happened that we have two grandkids who are just getting started in Scouting. Match made in heaven! Here’s a link to photos from the afternoon at the Museum: https://www.slorrm.com/221023-merit-badge.html

All Aboard!
The rails of a railroad track are kept shiny on the top by the regular passage of trains. Thus, "To Shiny Rails" is the battle cry of my personal effort to keep railroading activities of all kinds available to as many people as possible. It's tantamount to exclaiming "Keep those trains a rollin'!". And with any luck at all, I'll personally be on as many of those trains as possible! To shiny rails, Jamie
