“Pretty Humorous” 






                       Unlike typical railroad G-scale modelers who construct their layout from the ground up,                                              the Society's Building Committee members 


 Lance Molenda, George Sarver, David Ransom, Owen Todd, David Casey and Gary Barneko

 are in the process of collecting donations to employ outside construction firms 
to move the “Bull Moose Line” model railroad venue 
to Sunset Hill Farm Park.
In the last fifteen months Society’s Building Committee has managed to strip the sod for the “Bull Moose Line” railroad garden placement over the septic field 
on the east side of Sunset Hill Farm 
with manpower and equipment assistance from the Porter County park District.
