The Amherst organization annually awards grant monies for worthwhile projects in support of the hobby. Source of grant money includes revenue from model train shows that are conducted annually by the Amherst organization. For the year 2004, the Amherst Train Show is scheduled for February 7 and 8. You are encouraged to visit the Amherst web site for details regarding the show. The web site is www.amherstrail.org.
As in previous years, the New York Central System Historical Society has reserved table space at the show, and will have a display, including books, calendars, and other memorabilia published by the Society for sale. We are sure that those of you who have an interest in the New York Central and its subsidiary lines are sure to find items of interest.
On behalf of the Trustees and our members, the New York Central Historical Society wishes to publicly acknowledge this Grant from Amherst, and to express our sincere thanks for their support of our efforts.
