packet, containing your new membership card, Spring ’08 newsletter and
special offers and announcements will arrive soon. But why wait to

Atlas booth at the York TCA Meet April 17 – 20 got a sneak peak via a
special packet, and if you’re reading this, you will, too!
“Behind the Booth” Golden Spike Lounge
In lieu of
seminars this York Meet, (Atlas O VP Jim Weaver was abroad planning
future O Scale products for your model railroading enjoyment), the
“Behind the Booth” area was transformed into the Golden Spike Lounge.
Active 2008 members showed their original cards to enter and were
checked off on a current master list. They received “Members Only”
packets, enjoyed complimentary coffee and refreshments and got to relax and
chat with fellow members and Atlas staff.
Everything in
the packets will be included in the upcoming newsletter mailing,
including:
The
complete newsletter will also include information on membership cards,
