Some of our new members may not be aware of our outreach to attract new collectors into having an interest in O-Gauge trains. Our thinking is you have two choices, either look for ways to expand the hobby or shrink. Staying pat rarely works. We prefer the growth path. Diversification is a good management tool to accomplish growth. So, last year we began two new initiatives, the NABCC & the D56 Club. WOW, the NABCC took off for us like a rocket. We grew this new initiative dramatically and at the same time attracted Brooklin Model collectors to O-Gauge trains and vise-versa. Late last year, we inaugurated the D56 Club & Forum with the same idea of bringing a large audience of D56 collectors into integrating O-Gauge trains into their Christmas displays. None of this would have been possible without some very talented folks on board the OGF Train who could organize, design, and take two initiatives from scratch and build them rapidly and successfully. Emile, Adam, Ken & Joe gave so much or their talents and time. As an example of our creativity and talent to grow, we are offering to new members of our D56 Club this beautiful Department Flag. A good deal of effort went into this project and we are very proud that it turned out so well. This gift is an all-metal accessory and is scaled to ft into O-Gauge layouts. Clearly demonstrates to our members what we can do as part of our building program. Want one of these beautiful Flags for your layout, easy, go to our sister forum at https:d56club.com, click in the SHOP function, then select the Premium Membership option.
